SOME QUOTES ON MOTHER

 

 

                             SOME QUOTES ON MOTHER

            All men and women are the gifts of mothers to this world.

Mothers are not just women. They are almost everything to their children. Their relationship is vast and eternal. Besides being mothers, responsible for children’s upbringing and growth, they are also their  teachers, guides, guardians, care-takers, friends, lovers, protectors and well wishers.

 

            Their spiritual qualities make them goddesses. They deserve to be obeyed, respected and worshipped.

 

            When everybody will leave you, you will have your mother to sacrifice all her assets for your well being. It is she who prays for your health and happiness, all-round development and optimal rise in your normal and ambitious activities. s.

 

            The English critic and historian Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800-59) says: “Children!  look in those eyes, listen to that dear voice, notice the feeling of even a single touch that is bestowed upon you by that gentle hand! Make much of it while yet you have that most precious of all good gifts, a  loving  mother.

            Read the unfathomable love of those eyes; the kind anxiety of that tone and look, however slight your pain.

 

            In after life you may have friends, fond, dear friends, but never will you have again the inexpressible love, and gentleness lavished upon you, which none but a mother bestows. “

 

            The 16th U.S. President Abraham Lincoln (1809-65)  admitted :  All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother.

   

            Finally, a few selected lines from “To My Mother”, a poem written by the American poet Edgar Allen Poe (1809-1849).   

 

 

 

“To my mother, a love that’s true

A guiding light, always for you.

Through thick and thin, you stood by me,

My rock, my anchor, eternally.

 

Your wisdom shines, a radiant gleam,

A constant source, it would seem.

You taught me strength, resilience too,

To face the world, brave and true.

 

So thank you, Mom, for all you do,

My love for you will see me through.

A mother’s love, a precious find,

A treasure rare,  one of a kind.
