Mothers possess a power beyond that of a king on his throne.
There is no velvet so soft as a mother’s lap, no rose as lovely as her smile, no path so flowery as that imprinted with her footsteps.
Mama was my greatest teacher, a teacher of compassion, love and fearlessness. If love is sweet as a flower, then my mother is that sweet flower of love.
Mother’s love is peace. It need not be acquired, it need not be deserved.
The best place to cry is on a mother’s arms.
Mothers hold their children’s hands for a short while, but their hearts forever.
There is only one pretty child in the world, and every mother has it.
The art of mothering is to teach the art of living to children.
Youth fades; love droops; the leaves of friendship fall. A mother’s secret hope outlives them all.
A mother is a mother still, the holiest thing alive.
