Mother’s Day Sayings

I’m not insane. My mother had me tested.

A woman's greatest achievement is to be a mother.

I used to think when I was young, that I was adopted by my mother because they found me in a spaceship, and they let me out, and I was from a different planet.

One day, when I was about eleven, I was sitting in the garden, waiting for my mother, and I had a vision. The world suddenly became transparent. I saw into the depths of things. The trees, the houses, the whole landscape, the clouds, the distant moun…

I want to be able to write and be a woman and have children and be a wife and be a mother and be a lover and be a friend and be a daughter and be a sister and be a human being and be an artist. I want to be all those things.

When I was a child, my mother said to me, 'If you are a soldier, you will become a general. If you are a monk, you will become the Pope.' Instead, I was a painter, and became Picasso.

I'm a girl's girl. I'm a woman's woman. I'm a mother's mother. I'm a sister's sister. I'm a friend's friend. I'm a wife's wife. I'm a daughter's daughter. I'm a human being.

My mother didn't love me. So what. My husband won't ball me. So what. I'm a success but I'm still alone. So what. I don't know how I made it through all the years before I learned how to do that trick.

My mother always called me an ugly weed, so I never was aware of anything until I was older. Plain girls should have someone telling them they are beautiful. Sometimes this works miracles.

I had crossed the line. I was free; but there was no one to welcome me to the land of freedom. I was a stranger in a strange land; and my home after all, was down in Maryland; because my father, my mother, my brothers, and sisters, and friends were t…

A man who has been the undisputed favorite of his mother retains throughout life the triumphant feeling, the confidence in success, which not seldom brings actual success with it.

I am a man, no doubt. But I am also a woman. I am a white woman. I am a white woman who lives in a white society. I am a white woman who is a feminist. I am a white woman who is a mother. I am a white woman who is a writer. I am all of these things, …

My father was a white man. I mean, my mother was a black woman. And I am a black man. I don't care about my father, I care about my mother. And I care about my people.

I was not born to be a housewife. I am a beauty queen, I am a politician, I am a First Lady, and I am a mother. I am all of these, and I have to be all of these.

It's a funny thing about mothers and fathers. Even when their own child is the most disgusting creature you could ever imagine, they still think that he or she is wonderful.

I don't have prejudice against myself. My father was a white man from England. My mother was a black woman from Jamaica. I am half-black and half-white. I am not prejudiced against myself.

I never had a mother that was really a mother. I just had a kid that was a mother. She was eighteen, I was thirteen, and she used to go out and live it up. So I had to go out and get a job. I was working in a whorehouse.

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they …

If you end up with a boring, miserable life because you listened to your mother, your father, your teacher, your priest, or some guy on television telling you how to do your shit, then you deserve it.
