A Paean to Mothers

Mother: the most beautiful word on the lips of mankind.Khalil Gibran

Because I feel that in the heavens above

The angels, whispering to one another,

Can find among their burning tears of love,

None so devotional as that of Mother,

Therefore, by that dear name I have long called you,

You are more than mother unto me.- Edgar Allen Poe, To my Mother

Mother is the only name for God in the lips and hearts of little children. – William Makepeace Thackery, Vanity Fair

My mother said that the cure for thinking too much about yourself was helping somebody who was worse off than you.Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar
