CANVA
“But there's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begin.”
CANVA
“My mom smiled at me. Her smile kind of hugged me.”
CANVA
“I am writing you from inside a body that used to be yours. Which is to say, I am writing as a son.”
CANVA
"She was of the stuff of which great men's mothers are made. She was indispensable to high generation, hated at tea parties, feared in shops, and loved at crises."
CANVA
"To describe my mother would be to write about a hurricane in its perfect power. Or the climbing, falling colors of a rainbow."
CANVA
"A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity. It dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path."
CANVA
“‘Can anything harm us, mother, after the night-lights are lit?’‘Nothing, precious,’ she said; ‘they are the eyes a mother leaves behind her to guard her children.’”
CANVA
“He didn't realise that love as powerful as your mother's for you leaves its own mark.”
CANVA
“I really saw clearly, and for the first time, why a mother is really important. Not just because she feeds, loves, cuddles and even mollycoddles a child, but because in an interesting & an eerie way, she stands in the gap. She stands between the unknown and the known.”
CANVA
"As mothers and daughters, we are connected with one another. My mother is the bones of my spine, keeping me straight and true. She is my blood, making sure it runs rich and strong. She is the beating of my heart. I cannot now imagine a life without her."
