Mother Quotes
-
Because our generation has waited so long to have babies, we feel we've 'discovered' something that women have been doing for thousands of years. I have no illusions that I will be in the same situation as the average working mother. I'm not trying to prove anything - I just want to have kids.
Jane Pauley

The mother as a social servant instead of a home servant will not lack in true mother duty.... From her work, loved and honored though it is, she will return to her home life, the child life, with an eager, ceaseless pleasure, cleansed of all the fret and fraction and weariness that so mar it now.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman

I'm sure my priorities will change. My mother was such a great mother and is still such a big part of my life. I want my kids to feel that way about me. I want to be in their lives. I

"If I am next to a door, I could open it for a girl, but I would actually rather open it for a child or a senior citizen. I don't like going out for dinner as I don't like those cameras on my face and don't like people taking pictures while I am eating. I don't like candle light dinners as I can't see the food. Every time a candle light dinner happens, there is a problem as there will be some conversation on marriage or some other conversation and I know that the candle light dinner will end in a fight. I have
been for candle light dinners only twice and both times, the same thing happened. Also, I can't go out and hold the hand of my girlfriend in public, as I feel that holding hands in public is a public exhibition and showing off of your relationship to others and I don't need to do that. I have never seen my father
hold my mother's hand. In fact just recently he started holding her hand, as she needs a little bit of support to walk. I feel that what you can't do in front of your parents you should not be doing outside."
