Pastoral Resources

Everybody's looking for the niche to make the difference. Some people think they see the mother lode in the beautiful people, especially the vote of the beautiful women.

When she was younger, my mother was quite committed to Roman Catholicism. But she got disillusioned with it and moved closer to something like Buddhist beliefs near the end of her life.

I'm convinced my mother only had sex eight times.

My mother taught me about the power of inspiration and courage, and she did it with a strength and a passion that I wish could be bottled.

I have a very long relationship with America. My mother grew up there and I felt to some extent that I partly belong there. I was schooled there briefly for about a year.

A mother is not a person to lean on but a person to make leaning unnessary.

I want to thank my mother and my father for teaching me to have a dream. You are seeing my dream come true.

Night is the mother of thoughts.

I was encouraged by my mother and, to a lesser extent, by my father.

My mother killed herself when I was 12. I won't complete that relationship. But I can try to understand her.

I wasn't really aware that my father was working for quite a while. I thought it was my mother who had all the money!

Brando's a family friend. His mother gave my father a shot to be in a play at the Omaha Community Playhouse. That was the first production he was in.

My mother keeps me abreast of all the hometown things.

There are no adequate substitutes for father, mother, and children bound together in a loving commitment to nurture and protect. No government, no matter how well-intentioned, can take the place of the family in the scheme of things.

My mother was watching on television and she doesn't want me to hurt anyone.

By the time I was four, I would walk around the corner and wait at a local streetcar stop, get on the streetcar with somebody who looked like they could be my mother and go to the end of the line.

My mother was a wonderful, wonderful woman with a lovely voice who hated housework, hated cooking even more and loved her children. She was always arranging church activities such as a bazaar.

When I started to sing, my mother would have me engaged to perform at the Women's Christian Temperance Union national or annual meetings. I would hate doing this because I wanted to play baseball or go off skiing.

I am sure that if the mothers of various nations could meet, there would be no more wars.

At the moment, my mother is the only one left in Glasgow, although it's certainly my home.
