The schoolteacher asked a boy this question: Suppose your mother baked a pie and there were six of you – your mother, your father and four children. What percentage of the pie would you get?

“One-fifth,� replied the boy.

The teacher responded, “I’m afraid you don’t know your fractions. Remember, there are six of you.�

“I know,� said the boy, “but you don’t know my mother. She would say she didn’t want any pie so we could have more.�

An ounce of mother is often worth more than a ton of clergy.

Motherhood is the salvation of womanhood.

Helpful hint for the new mother: just fill up at one end and empty
at the other.

Abraham Lincoln said, 'The greatest lessons I ever learned were at
my mother's knees."

A community or nation can be no stronger than its mothers.
