Quotes about mothers

I thought I'd have a post each week until Mother's Day with some of my favorite quotes about mothers. Here are a few from famous political leaders.

mortal, intellectual and physical education I received from her.
-George Washington


I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me.
They have clung to me all my life.
-Abraham Lincoln


Let France have good mothers,
and she will have good sons.
