“A father may turn his back on his child, brothers and sisters may become inveterate enemies, husbands may desert their wives, wives their husbands. But a mother's love endures through all.”
Washington Irving
“The love of a mother is the veil of a softer light between the heart and the heavenly Father.”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
“For the hand that rocks the cradle - Is the hand that rules the world”
William Ross Wallace
“The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.”
Honore de Balzac
“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 trouble thickens 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.”
“Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible.”
Marion C. Garretty
