Mothers are some of the strongest, wisest, kindest, and toughest people in the world. Their seemingly endless ability to nurture, nourish and love makes them superhuman, and we don’t know what we’d do without them.
As the U.K. celebrates Mother’s Day this March 31, let’s take a moment to honor our mums with these inspiring quotes.
“When you look into your mother’s eyes, you know that is the purest love you can find on this earth.” – Mitch Albom
“It’s a funny thing about mothers…Even when their own child is the most disgusting little blister you could ever imagine, they still think that he or she is wonderful.” – Roald Dahl
“My mom is the No. 1 person who has taught me to be courteous towards women, to always be respectful and polite to them, and to always lead with your heart.” – Zac Efron
“The clocks were striking midnight and the rooms were very still as a figure glided quietly from bed to bed, smoothing a coverlid here, settling a pillow there, and pausing to look long and tenderly at each unconscious face, to kiss each with lips that mutely blessed, and to pray the fervent prayers which only mothers utter.” – Louisa May Alcott
“To describe my mother would be to write about a hurricane in its perfect power. Or the climbing, falling colors of a rainbow.” – Maya Angelou
“My mother taught me that there are more valuable ways to achieve beauty than just through your external features. She was focused on compassion and respect, and those are the things that ended up translating to me as beauty.” – Lupita Nyong’o
“A mother is always the beginning. She is how things begin.” – Amy Tan
“My mother…she is beautiful, softened at the edges and tempered with a spine of steel. I want to grow old and be like her.” – Jodi Picoult
“Nothing can really prepare you for you the sheer overwhelming experience of what it means to become a mother. It is full of complex emotions of joy, exhaustion, love, and worry, all mixed together. Your fundamental identity changes overnight.” – Kate Middleton
“You never again have a day where you don’t think of your kids first…like, ‘How are the kids doing? What do they need?’ That’s my first thought when I wake up in the morning and go to sleep at night. I’m always thinking of them.” – Zooey Deschanel
