A Little Time and a Keyboard: Mother's Day Quotes Part Deux

Mother's Day Quotes Part Deux

Monday, May 5, 2014


I ran across my previous post about Quote Garden and some great Mother's Day quotes that I found there. A really good quote can truly stand on its own and I love statements that are profound, sum up the feelings of a moment or get you to think. So, of course, my stumble inspired me to look up a few more quotes. These may come in handy as you reflect upon Mother's Day and as you get ready to write those cards!

Quotes from Mother's Day Celebration:

Making a decision to have a child--it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ~ Elizabeth Stone

Women do not have to sacrifice personhood if they are mothers. They do not have to sacrifice motherhood in order to be persons. Liberation was meant to expand women's opportunities, not to limit them. The self-esteem that has been found in new pursuits can also be found in mothering. ~Elaine Heffner

There is only one pretty child in the world, and every mother has it. ~Chinese Proverb
