Quotes About Mother

No tengo otro recuerdo de mi madre y es tan perfecto que estoy casi convencido de que es fruto de mi imaginación.
~ Madeline Miller
Lady of the silver moon Enchantress of the night Protect me and mine within this circle fairly cast. Earth Mother, mother of the sleeping earth, Keep safe all who gather here Within the protective shelter of your arms. By the earth that is Her body, By the air that is Her breath, By the fire that is Her bright spirit, And by the living waters of Her womb, Our circle is cast, None shall come to harm here, From any forces, On any level. As we will, So shall it be done. As we will, So mote it be.

The truth is our disconnection with Earth translates into a kind of disrespect of the feminine. How far can you go in violating the mother that gave you life? As long as the feminine is diminished the connection between us and the Earth will always be underscored by a big question mark. We have abused the Earth so much that we don't know which direction to go. We must wonder about this increasing masculinity that is translated in terms of repeated violence or love of it.

Una mañana mi madre me dio un pedazo de pan que parecía recién hecho o quizá lo imagino recién hecho y un puñado de aceitunas negras, muy sabrosas, de esas aceitunas arrugadas que se llaman de Aragón. Recuerdo aquellos sabores, la alegría de mi libertad en la calle. La mirada protectora de mi madre. Si pudiera volver a aquella mañana.

Mais il y a une chose qui ne changera jamais : c'est l'amour des enfants pour leur mère, et j'ai écrit ce livre pour apprendre aux petite filles comment leurs fils les aimeront un jour...

She's on the stairs, ma'am, getting her breath,' said the young servant, who had not been long up from the country, where my mother had the excellent habit of getting all her servants. Often she had seen them born. That's the only way to get really good ones. And they're the rarest of luxuries.
~ Marcel Proust
He imagined himself lying there, unable to sleep, thinking of his mother, separated from her by the unresponsive blankets tucked too tightly round him, feeling the ceaseless thumping of his heart in the silence of the night, the irrevocability of absence, the rigid stillness of repose, the agony of solitude and sleeplessness. If the room was a prison, the bed was a tomb.

And just as war is always for somebody else, so it is also true that someone else always gets killed. And Mother of God! that wasn't true either. The dreadful telegrams began to sneak sorrowfully in, and it was everybody's brother. Here we were, over six thousand miles from the anger and the noise, and that didn't save us.
~ John Steinbeck
Hakaret eÅŸiÄŸinin zeka ve güvenle doÄŸrudan iliÅŸkili olduÄŸunu söylemiÅŸti. ''Orospu çocuÄŸu'' sözü ancak anas?ndan pek emin olmayan bir adam için hakaret say?l?r ama insan Albert Einstein'a nas?l hakaret edebilir ki, demiÅŸti.
~ John Steinbeck
I remember that the Gabilan Mountains to the east of the valley were light gay mountains full of sun and loveliness and a kind of invitation, so that you wanted to climb into their warm foothills almost as you want to climb into the lap of a beloved mother.

voices and scuffling feet. A girl and a boy, he thinks, but he can't be certain. By the sound of it, their mother goes with them. That leaves Vollmer waiting alone in the dining room. Chaim leads the way once the water has come to a boil. With white linen draped over his arms and
