Text Quotes
My mother was very agnostic. She would never set foot in the synagogue, she couldn’t be doing with it  (My Mother Quotes) I grew up in a household where reading was encouraged. My mother believed in the power of words, and my father obviously did too  (My Mother Quotes) I never thought I’d be doing poetry books. I never really studied poetry. But the first one I did was after my mother died, and I realized that people sort of think and talk about her style and fashion, but in fact, what made her the person she was was really her love of reading and ideas  (My Mother Quotes) One of the greatest gifts my brother and I received from my mother was her love of literature and language. With their boundless energy, libraries open the door to these worlds and so many others. I urge young and old alike to embrace all that libraries have to offer  (My Mother Quotes) The eyebrow pencil and false eyelashes were essential; my mother didn’t feel dressed without them  (My Mother Quotes) My mother, father, stepmother and surrogate mother have all died of cancer; my best friend has got terminal cancer and at least five of my other friends have had cancer but survived it  (My Mother Quotes) Women have always ruled my life, be it my mother, my wife, my assistant, or my daughter, so I don’t really fight with them. I relinquished control years ago  (My Mother Quotes) I once heard my mother tell my sister love only comes at a price, there’s no way around it. You give up parts of yourself for love, she said. If that’s true, I thought, the cost of our love had risen. And despite wanting to be as real to you as you were to me, I couldn’t afford us any longer. We were beyond my means  (My Mother Quotes) People say you’re born innocent, but it’s not true. You inherit all kinds of things that you can do nothing about. You inherit your identity, your history, like a birthmark that you can’t wash off... We are born with our heads turned back, but my mother says we have to face into the future now. You have to earn your own innocence, she says. You have to grow up and become innocent  (My Mother Quotes) ... the face has limited space. My mother used to say, if you fill your face with laughing, there will be no more room for crying  (My Mother Quotes) My mother used to talk about passages and, once in a while, about ordeals. We all have them; we are all shaped by them. She thought the key was to find the healing in the hurt  (My Mother Quotes) My mother taught me to always be strong and always work hard. She’s been working hard her whole life for me and my brother. I’m a lot like her in that I work hard for what I want. She taught me that  (My Mother Quotes) My mother has always been my role model, and I believe my survival in the entertainment business is in large part due to my desire to be a strong woman like my mother. She is my hero  (My Mother Quotes) My father has been the silent force behind my success. My mother has been a constant source of guidance in my career  (My Mother Quotes) I am what I am thanks to my mother, my father, my brother, my sister... because they have given me everything. The education I have is thanks to them  (My Mother Quotes) My mother always read to me as a child. I really believe that bonding time between a parent and child is so important and precious. I have lasting memories of those stories because the experience was special  (My Mother Quotes) I created a weapon to defend the borders of my motherland. It’s not my fault that it’s being used where it shouldn’t be. The politicians are more to blame for this  (My Mother Quotes) I am fooling only myself when I say that my mother exists now only in the photographs on my bulletin board or in the outline of my hand or in the armful of memories I still hold tight. She lives on beneath everything I do. Her presence influenced who I was and her absence influences who I am. Our lives are shaped as much by those who leave us as they are by those who stay. Loss is our legacy. Insight is our gift. Memory is our guide  (My Mother Quotes) I can’t let my mother’s death have been in vain. Democracy is the best revenge, and we will have it  (My Mother Quotes) My mother would be so touched by the tributes and prayers that we have received from around the world. Her condition remains serious but she is receiving the best treatment and care possible. We ask that you continue to keep her in your thoughts as we pray for her recovery  (My Mother Quotes) I want to set the example my mother set for me: a strong female role model who faces challenges takes risks and conquers fears. I want my children to know that as women they can do whatever they dream as long as they believe in themselves. More than anything it is my responsibility to instill in my daughters the knowledge that they can have a family and everything else too  (My Mother Quotes) From my mother came the idea that going down to the sea repaired the spirit. That is where she walked when she was sad or worried or lonely for my father. If she had been crying, she came back composed; if she had left angry with us, she returned in good humor. So we naturally believed that there was a cleansing, purifying effect to be had; that letting the fresh wind blow through you mind and spirits as well as your hair and clothing purged black thoughts; that contemplating the ceaseless motion of the waves calmed a raging spirit  (My Mother Quotes) I’d had my share of rain. My mother’s illness... had weighed on me, but the years before had been heavy, too. I was only twenty eight  (My Mother Quotes) I grew up in a family of strong women and I owe any capacity I have to understand women to my mother and big sister. They taught me to respect women in a way where I’ve always felt a strong emotional connection to women, which has also helped me in the way I approach my work as an actor  (My Mother Quotes) My mother and father were perfect role models. They were together for 25 years and very much in love. But I’ve got too much to do now. I’m only 27  (My Mother Quotes) I was a child, and my mother was psychotic. She loved me, but I didn’t really feel I had a mother. And when you live with somebody who is paranoid and thinks you’re trying to kill them all the time, you tend to feel a little betrayed  (My Mother Quotes) You know, I used to warm the thermometer on the light bulb... I was really good at being sick. I could forge my mother’s signature on a sick note so well I was hardly ever at school  (My Mother Quotes) If I tried to shout over my older brother, my mother told me keep quiet. If I tried to shout over my little sister, my father told me to shut up. I found the best way to be heard was to lower my voice and actually speak when I had something to say  (My Mother Quotes) I arrived on earth in 1928. Born into a milieu of painters, I acquired my taste for painting with my mother’s milk  (My Mother Quotes) My happiest childhood memories are of times in our backyard. My mother had an old clothesline that hung out in front. It seemed like it stretched a mile long, and I loved sitting in the sun while she hung clothes  (My Mother Quotes)
