Men are what their mothers made them.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Most mothers are instinctive philosophers.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
Mothers are fonder than fathers of their children because they
are more certain they are their own.
Aristotle
Mother is the name for God in the lips and hearts of little
children.
William Makepeace Thackeray
Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to
do the impossible.
Marion C. Garretty
Quoted in A Little Spoonful of Chicken
Soup for the Mother's Soul.
Youth fades; love droops, the leaves of friendship fall;
A mother's secret hope outlives them all.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
The sweetest sounds to mortals given
Are heard in Mother, Home, and Heaven.
William Goldsmith Brown
Mothers hold their children's hands for a short while, but their
hearts forever.
Author Unknown
The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never
existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A
mother is something absolutely new.
Osho (Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh)
When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts.
A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once
for her child.
Sophia Loren
Women and Beauty.
Mother - that was the bank where we deposited all our hurts
and worries.
T. DeWitt Talmage
Now that... my kids are grown, I understand how much work and
love it takes to raise and to keep a family together. The example
of your strength, devotion, and patience is now rippling through
the generations. Thank you!
Forest Houtenschil
The real religion of the world comes from women much more than
from men - from mothers most of all, who carry the key of our
souls in their bosoms.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
My mom is a neverending song in my heart of comfort, happiness,
and being. I may sometimes forget the words but I always remember
the tune.
Graycie Harmon
Woman in the home has not yet lost her dignity, in spite of
Mother's Day, with its offensive implication that our love needs
an annual nudging, like our enthusiasm for the battle of Bunker
Hill.
John Erskine
Women's Liberation is just a lot of foolishness. It's the men
who are discriminated against. They can't bear children. And
no one's likely to do anything about that.
Golda Meir
You don't really understand human nature unless you know why
a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time
around - and why his parents will always wave back.
William D. Tammeus
Motherhood is priced
Of God, at price no man may dare
To lessen or misunderstand.
Helen Hunt Jackson
Who fed me from her gentle breast
And hushed me in her arms to rest,
And on my cheek sweet kisses prest?
My Mother . . .
Who ran to help me when I fell,
And would some pretty story tell,
Or kiss the place to make it well?
My mother.
Ann Taylor
On Mother's Day I have written a poem for you. In the interest
of poetic economy and truth, I have succeeded in concentrating
my deepest feelings and beliefs into two perfectly crafted lines:
You're my mother, I would have no other!
Forest Houtenschil
This heart, my own dear mother, bends,
With love's true instinct, back to thee!
Thomas Moore
The one thing children wear out faster than shoes is parents.
John J. Plomp
Sweater, n.: garment worn by child when its mother is feeling
chilly.
Ambrose Bierce
Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide
forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.
Elizabeth Stone
If nature had arranged that husbands and wives should have children
alternatively, there would never be more than three in a family.
Lawrence Housman
There is only one pretty child in the world, and every mother
has it.
English Proverb
Never raise your hand to your kids. It leaves your groin unprotected.
Red Buttons
A man loves his sweetheart the most, his wife the best, but
his mother the longest.
Irish proverb
Setting a good example for your children takes all the fun out
of middle age.
William Feather
A mother's love, a Mother's care,
A mother's sigh, a Mother's prayer
A Mother's work, and Mother's day,
Leaves little time for any play.
A godly Mother with godly love,
Is treasure from God above,
A godly Mother with godly above,
A godly Mother with godly care,
Has God's help when she sighs a prayer.
Calvin M. Lake
Even He that died for us upon the cross, in the last hour, in
the unutterable agony of death, was mindful of His mother, as
if to teach us that this holy love should be our last worldly
thought - the last point of earth from which the soul should
take its flight for heaven.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
This world has jewels, money, land
position, power, and mansions grand
But a mother's love more precious far,
than all these other treasures are.
A mother nurtures, guides, protects
Her teachings each child's life affects,
and when in later years they go,
away from home, and friends they know
Those teachings will provide the stay,
to keep them on the good straight way.
Brenda Ascott Fry
A Mother's Love.
My mother is a special part
Of all that’s cherished in my heart,
She is my pearl, my soul, my mate;
She is the one to make life great.
She is an angel without the wings,
Who makes life special with the littlest things,
Whenever I’m in need of love,
She is there from the heavens above;
Whenever I’m in need of a shoulder,
There’s no one as devoted as my mother.
