Quotations regarding 'Mothers'

Choose a letter: 
The Vatican is against surrogate mothers. Good thing they didn't have that rule when Jesus was born.
Elayne Boosler, American Comedian (1952-  )
I know from my constituency what is going on. Doctors that are told, begged, by mothers, 'Please don't write down that my child as asthma. Please lie and say it's bronchitis, because if you write down asthma, when my child turns 18 or 20 and has to get his or her own insurance, it will be a pre-existing condition.'
Barbara Boxer, American Politician (1940-  )
We say that a girl with her doll anticipates the mother. It is more true, perhaps, that most mothers are still but children with playthings.
F. H. Bradley, British Philosopher (1846-1924)
A mother's got to be there to raise the children. That's all there is to it. I feel badly for those mothers who work hard, and can't do it all the time.
Eric Braeden, American Actor (1941-  )
And getting older, what's happening is, I play only mothers.
Sonia Braga, Brazilian Actress (1950-  )
Morality becomes hypocrisy if it means accepting mothers' suffering or dying in connection with unwanted pregnancies and illegal abortions and unwanted children.
Gro Harlem Brundtland, Norwegian Politician (1939-  )
Some are kissing mothers and some are scolding mothers, but it is love just the same, and most mothers kiss and scold together.
Pearl S. Buck, American Novelist (1892-1973)
No fathers or mothers think their own children ugly.
Miguel de Cervantes, Spanish Novelist (1547-1616)
The more you can increase fear of drugs and crime, welfare mothers, immigrants and aliens, the more you control all the people.
Noam Chomsky, American Activist (1928-  )
Postpartum depression is a very real and very serious problem for many mothers. It can happen to a first time mom or a veteran mother. It can occur a few days... or a few months after childbirth.
Richard J. Codey, American Politician (1946-  )
I am so excited to let fans in on how important my relationship with my family is to me. I hope to motivate mothers and daughters to build lifetimes of memories together and inspire kids around the world to live their dreams.
Miley Cyrus, American Musician (1992-  )
Our mothers' generation fought so hard to change things and we're the first generation to benefit. And now you get girls in their twenties who say they're not feminists.
Kristin Davis, American Actress (1965-  )
The causes of youth violence are working parents who put their kids into daycare, the teaching of evolution in the schools, and working mothers who take birth control pills.
Tom DeLay, American Politician (1947-  )
Mothers don't let your daughters grow up to be models unless you're present.
Janice Dickinson, American Model (1953-  )
Let's take care of mothers and infants first, and then let's see what's left over for everybody over 50. I'm over 50. If I get sick, I would rather have money spent on children before it's spent on me.
Richard Dooling, American Novelist
Tired mothers find that spanking takes less time than reasoning and penetrates sooner to the seat of the memory.
Will Durant, American Historian (1885-1981)
I believe that always, or almost always, in all childhoods and in all the lives that follow them, the mother represents madness. Our mothers always remain the strangest, craziest people we've ever met.
Marguerite Duras, French Novelist (1914-1996)
Men are what their mothers made them.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
That satisfied me until I began to figure that if God loved all his children equally, why did he bother about my red hat and let other people lose their fathers and mothers for always?
Frances Farmer, American Actress (1913-1970)
I can't think why mothers love them. All babies do is leak at both ends.
