Art Birch:
Since Jesus
highly values children, mothers are His servants when they bless their children
for Him
Charlotte Gray:
Becoming a
mother makes you the mother of all children. From now on each wounded,
abandoned, frightened child is yours. You live in the suffering mothers of
every race and creed and weep with them. You long to comfort all who are
desolate.
George Eliot:
A mother's
yearning feels the presence of the cherished child even in the degraded manner.
Napoleon Bonaparte:
Let France
have good mothers, and she will have good sons.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning:
Women know
the way to rear up children (to be just). They know a simple, merry, tender
knack of tying sashes, fitting baby-shoes, and stringing pretty words that make
no sense. And kissing full sense into empty words.
Elizabeth Stone:
Making the
decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your
heart go walking around outside your body.
Aristotle:
Mothers are
fonder than fathers of their children because they are more certain they are
their own.
Washington Irving:
A mother is
the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when
adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in
our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken around us, still will she cling
to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds
of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.
Abraham Lincoln:
All that I am
or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel Mother.
Henry Ward Beecher:
The mother's
heart is the child's schoolroom
George Washington:
My mother was
the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute
all my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I
received from her.
James Russell Lowell:
That best
academy, a mother's knee.
Exodus 20:12
"Honor
your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD
your God is giving you."
2 Timothy 1:5
"I have
been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois
and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also."
1 Thessalonians 2:7
"As
apostles of Christ we could have been a burden to you, but we were gentle among
you, like a mother caring for her little
children."
