So when the great word "Mother!" rang
once more,
I saw at last its meaning and its place;
Not the blind passion of the brooding past,
But Mother -- the World's Mother -- come at last,
To love as she had never loved before --
To feed and guard and teach the human race.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman

mothering.Elaine Heffner

The way to rear up children (to be just)
They know a simple, merry, tender knack
Of tying sashes, fitting baby-shoes
And stringing pretty words that make no sense.

A mother's secret hope outlives them all.Oliver Wendell Holmes

moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her.
