Answers at the bottom kath Match the Quote to the Speaker 1. "A father may turn his back on his child; brothers and sisters may become inveterate enemies; husbands may desert their wives and wives their husbands. But a mother's love endures through all; in good repute, in bad repute, in the face of the world's condemnation, a mother still loves on, and still hopes that her child may turn from his evil ways, and repent; still she remembers the infant smiles that once filled her bosom with rapture, the merry laugh, the joyful shout of his childhood, the opening promise of his youth; and she can never be brought to think him all unworthy." 2."Men are what their mothers made them." 3."The Mother-child relationship is paradoxical and, in a sense, tragic. It requires the most intense love on the mother's side, yet this very love must help the child grow away from the mother and to become fully independent." 4."Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother." 5."A mother is she who can take the place of all others but whose place no one else can take." 6."A mother is not a person to lean on, but a person to make leaning unnecessary." 7."Motherhood brings as much joy as ever, but it still brings boredom,exhaustion, and sorrow, too. Nothing else ever will make you as happy or as sad, as proud or as tired, for nothing is quite as hard as helping a person develop his own individuality especially while you struggle to keep your own. 8."Mothers all want their sons to grow up to be president, but they don't want them to become politicians in the process." 9."No man succeeds without a good woman behind him. Wife or mother, if it is both, he is twice blessed indeed." 10."You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth." A. Kahlil Gibran B. Ralph Waldo Emerson C.
