A mother is
someone
who guides
and inspires.
She helps us
to attain our
dreams and
desires.
Wisdom and
insight are
part of her
way,
and her faith
in her
children
brightens
their

 All mothers are rich when they love their
children. There are no poor mothers, no
ugly ones, no old ones. Their love is
always the most beautiful of joys.
—Maurice Maeterlinck (1862-
1949)

She broke the bread into two
fragments and gave them to the
children, who ate with avidity.
       "She hath kept none for herself,"
grumbled the sergeant.
       "Because she is not hungry,"
said a soldier.
       "Because she is a mother," said
the sergeant.

 My mother said to me, "If you become a soldier, you'll be a
general; if you become a monk, you'll end up as the pope."
Instead I became a painter and wound up as Picasso.

 A partially deaf boy came home from school one day carrying a note
from officials at the school. The note suggested that the parents take
the boy out of school, claiming that he was "too stupid to learn."
     
      The boy's mother read the
note and said, "My son Tom
isn't 'too stupid to learn.' I'll
teach him myself." And so she
did.
      When Tom died many
years later, the people of the
United States of America paid
tribute to him by turning off the
nation's lights for one full
minute. You see, this Tom had
invented the light bulb—and
not only that, but motion
pictures and the record player.
In all, Thomas Edison had
more than one thousand
patents to his credit.

 You may have tangible
wealth untold;
       Caskets of jewels
and coffers of gold.
       Richer than I you
can never be—
       I had a mother who
read to me.

—Strickland Gillian (1869-

1954)
