Being A Good Mother Quotes

I think my mother taught me what not to do. She put us first, always, sometimes to the detriment of herself. She encouraged me not to do that. She’d say being a good mother isn’t all about sacrificing; it’s really investing and putting yourself higher on your priority list Picture Quote #1

It’s okay to be proud of your good English. But don’t be proud of being poor at your Mother tongue. Only the scum of the earth do that Picture Quote #1

We sang a lot of church music. We were very active Baptists. Supposedly, I started singing when I was being given a bath - at 14 months or something like that. My mother and dad both swore that was true, but I’m sure it wasn’t very good... We always had the Metropolitan Opera on the radio on Saturday afternoons Picture Quote #1

I’m a great mother because of my intentions on being a great mother; I’m a good friend because I’m loyal; I’m a good daughter because I’ve hopefully made my mother proud; I’m a great human being because I accept that there’s a spiritual being underneath it all. I’ve always been a woman of faith Picture Quote #1

My mother started out by being a very good girl. She did everything that was expected of her, and it cost her dearly. Late in her life, she was furious that she had not followed her own heart; she thought that it had ruined her life, and I think she was right Picture Quote #1

Once upon a time, if you wanted to talk about the notion of child abandonment, of a mother not being a good mother, that’s built into the mother who sends the babes into the woods, and they use the bits of bread or stones to come home again Picture Quote #1

I thought I was going to be a lot more freaked out by being naked onstage. I think on film I would have been more freaked out, because film is less forgiving. But onstage it’s lit so beautifully. It would make my mother look good Picture Quote #1

You know, I used to warm the thermometer on the light bulb... I was really good at being sick. I could forge my mother’s signature on a sick note so well I was hardly ever at school Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid, my mother used to film all of our holidays and all of the good times, and I kind of associated the camera with everything being okay and everything being happy Picture Quote #1

I have always been very good at being able to structure my time. My mother had a huge influence on me. My dad was my coach. He was a hugely influential figure Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I would have been a good mother. Being a parent brings immense responsibility. It’s a Herculean task. It would be almost too much for me Picture Quote #1

I always knew that food and wine were vital, with my mother being Italian and a good cook Picture Quote #1

I’ve been trying to keep the private life private. Not being savvy or trained on how to do good interviews like a politician, I thought it was wiser to follow my mother’s advice: If you have nothing good to say, don’t say anything at all Picture Quote #1

For me, just being how old I am, I know I don’t want to be a single mom. I really would rather make it a two-person job. But I’ve also come to terms with not being a mother at all. I’m actually really good with either direction that my life can take as being a valid experience Picture Quote #1

I do mean this - I had the good fortune of being around a number of Alzheimer’s patients in the last three years of my mother’s life. She was in a care facility that was devoted to just people with memory-loss issues. I found those people engaging and generous in ways that I had not imagined Picture Quote #1

My father was really good with math. It’s a funny thing, I don’t remember my father or my mother being so mechanical-minded. My father always wanted to be a doctor, but he came from a really poor family in Georgia, and there was no way he was going to be a doctor Picture Quote #1

I would not be a good mother. I mean, I love being an aunt to my niece and nephew. And I used to want to, like, adopt 10 kids - because I had friends who were adopted, and I thought that was the coolest thing, to be chosen. But again, my job is too selfish Picture Quote #1

I learnt a whole lot from my mother. About music, relationships, being a good person, loving people, the whole of life. I learnt about everything from her. Every single day I think about her. All through the day Picture Quote #1

Sometimes being a good mother gets in the way of being a good person Picture Quote #1

I am not allowed to be afraid. My mother made me like that. As a child, if I was afraid of the dark, she would lock me in the closet. Things like this. And she would talk about the time she spent in the concentration camp, but not about being afraid, only about the good side of it Picture Quote #1

A mother who is obsessing about being thin and dieting and exercising is not going to be a very good mother Picture Quote #1

Being a good mother, it seemed to me, meant you ran the risk of losing your child Picture Quote #1

Being a good mother does not call for the same qualities as being a good housewife; a dedication to keeping children clean and tidy may override an interest in their separate development as individuals Picture Quote #1
