Famous Quotes on Mother
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.

man.

that make no sense. And kissing full sense into empty words.
Elizabeth Stone

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.

of motherhood?

an interest in life. She knows it's safer for them to be interested in other
people's happiness than to believe in their own.
Andrea Dworkin -

The fact that we are all trained to be mothers from infancy on means that we
are all trained to devote our lives to men, whether they are our sons or not;
that we are all trained to force other women to exemplify the lack of qualities
which characterizes the cultural construct of femininity.
