3. A mother is not a person to lean on, but a person to make leaning unnecessary.
4. At work, you think of the children you have left at home.
At home, you think of the work you've left unfinished. Such a struggle is unleashed within yourself. Your heart is rent.
5. Mothers hold their children's hands for a short while, but their hearts forever.
6. As is the mother, so is her daughter.
7. Men are what their mothers made them.
8. Most mothers are instinctive philosophers.
9. We never know the love of the parent until we become parents ourselves.
10. The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.
11. The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom.
12. Who is getting more pleasure from this rocking, the baby or me?
13. By and large, mothers and housewives are the only workers who do not have regular time off. They are the great vacationless class.
14. Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother.
15. Mama exhorted her children at every opportunity to 'jump at de sun.' We might not land on the sun, but at least we would get off the ground.
16. That best academy, a mother's knee.
17. Making a decision to have a child--it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.
18. Anyone who doesn't miss the past never had a mother.
19. A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.

22. No matter how old a mother is, she watches her middle-aged children for signs of improvement.
23. Biological possibility and desire are not the same as biological need. Women have childbearing equipment. For them to choose not to use the equipment is no more blocking what is instinctive than it is for a man who, muscles or no, chooses not to be a weightlifter.
24. Women do not have to sacrifice personhood if they are mothers. They do not have to sacrifice motherhood in order to be persons. Liberation was meant to expand women's opportunities, not to limit them. The self-esteem that has been found in new pursuits can also be found in mothering.
25. Whatever else is unsure in this stinking dunghill of a world a mother's love is not.
26. All that remains to the mother in modern consumer society is the role of scapegoat; psychoanalysis uses huge amounts of money and time to persuade analysis and to foist their problems on to the absent mother, who has no opportunity to utter a word in her own defense. Hostility to the mother in our societies is an index of mental health.
27. 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.
28. All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That's his.
29. 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.
30. The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.
31. A suburban mother's role is to deliver children obstetrical once, and by car forever after.
32. All mothers are working mothers.
33. 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.
34. Motherhood is priced; Of God, at price no man may dare/To lessen or misunderstand.
35. It kills you to see them grow up. But I guess it would kill you quicker if they didn't.
36. God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.
37. I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.
38. Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs... since the payment is pure love.
39. Nobody knows of the work it makes
To keep the home together.
Nobody knows of the steps it takes,
Nobody knows-but Mother.

41. Mother - that was the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries.

44. No gift to your mother can ever equal her gift to you - life
45. An ounce of mother is worth a ton of priest.
46. Mothers are fonder than fathers of their children because they are more certain they are their own.
47. If nature had arranged that husbands and wives should have children alternatively, there would never be more than three in a family.
