A Collection of MOTHERHOOD Quotes

I am really having fun reading different motherhood quotes in the web. Some I love and some I don’t. In honoring the Mother’s Day celebration around the world, here are some motherhood quotes that you might find satisfying and rewarding to read or ponder. Enjoy reading!

“Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs in my field, since the payment is pure love.” - Mildred B. Vermont

“The natural state of motherhood is unselfishness. When you become a mother, you are no longer the center of your own universe. You relinquish that position to your children.” - Jessica Lange

“ Motherhood is a great honor and privilege, yet it is also synonymous with servant hood. Every day women are called upon to selflessly meet the needs of their families. Whether they are awake at night nursing a baby, spending their time and money on less-than-grateful teenagers, or preparing meals, moms continuously put others before themselves.” - Charles Stanley

“Completeness? Happiness? These words don't come close to describing my emotions. There truly is nothing I can say to capture what motherhood means to me, particularly given my medical history.” - Anita Baker

“Motherhood has completely changed me. It's just about like the most completely humbling experience that I've ever had. I think that it puts you in your place because it really forces you to address the issues that you claim to believe in and if you can't stand up to those principles when you're raising a child, forget it.” - Diane Keaton

‎"Listen earnestly to anything your children want to tell you, no matter what. If you don't listen eagerly to the little stuff while they are little, they won't tell you the big stuff when they are big, because to them all of it has always been big stuff." - Catherine M. Wallace

“ A mother's happiness is like a beacon, lighting up the future but reflected also on the past in the guise of fond memories.” - Honoré de Balzac

“Mother is the name of God in the lips and hearts of children”. - William Makepeace Thackeray

“ The hand that rocks the cradle, Is the hand that rules the world.” - W. R. Wallace

"There's only one beautiful child in the world and every mother has it." - Anonymous
