Of all the roles I've played, none has been as fulfilling as being a mother.

Mothers don't let your daughters grow up to be models unless you're present.

I owe much to mother. She had an expert's understanding, but also approached art emotionally.

A woman must combine the role of mother, wife and politician.

I wish my mother had left me something about how she felt growing up. I wish my grandmother had done the same. I wanted my girls to know me.

My mother taught me that we all have the power to achieve our dreams. What I lacked was the courage.

I basically became a cheerleader because I had a very strict mom. That was my way of being a bad girl.

There are only two things a child will share willingly communicable diseases and its mother's age.

Motherhood is the strangest thing, it can be like being one's own Trojan horse.

Mommy smoked but she didn't want us to. She saw smoke coming out of the barn one time, so we got whipped.
