Until Mothers Day in the UK and 44 days left for Mothers Day in the US.
More Mothers Day inspirational quotes:
16. That best academy, a mother's knee by James Russell Lowell, poet, critic and diplomat.
17. 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 by Elizabeth Stone.
18. Anyone who doesn't miss the past never had a mother by Gregory Nunn.
19. A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie by Tenneva Jordan.
20. Few misfortunes can befall a boy which brings worse consequences than to have a really affectionate mother by W. Somerset Maugham.
21. The lullaby is the spell whereby the mother attempts to transform herself back from an ogre to a saint by James Fenton.
22. No matter how old a mother is, she watches her middle-aged children for signs of improvement by Florida Scott-Maxwell.
23. Biological possibility and desire are not the same as biological need. Women have childbearing equipment. For them to choose not to use the equipment is no more blocking what is instinctive than it is for a man who, muscles or no, chooses not to be a weightlifter by Betty Rollin.
24. 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 by Elaine Heffner.
25. Whatever else is unsure in this stinking dunghill of a world a mother's love is not by James Joyce.
More countdowns tomorrow.
