Mother's Day Quotes
Most of what you will see here is about love in general, because the Mother page itself is short. The page is assembled from the pages on mothers, love and gratitude.
If you want quotes that are actually about mothers, the Mother page has fewer but more precise ones. For anything you plan to print or say out loud, check the source line and the label next to it.

Is to hate traitors and the treason love.
Calms appear, when storms are past,
Love will have its hour at last.

To see all things, but not my love to see.
Is not thilke the mery moneth of May,
When love lads masken in fresh aray?
Open the temple gates unto my love,
Open them wide that she may enter in.
Song made in lieu of many ornaments,
With which my love should duly have bene dect.
