A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts. -Washington Irving

　　母亲是世界上最真的朋友，当生活的考验沉重以及突然地降临时，当你身处逆境时，当朋友们离你而去时，当麻烦越来越大时，只有她永远支持着我们。用慈言和善语保护着我们，带回平静给我们的内心——华盛顿·欧文

　　Everybody knows that a good mother gives her children a feeling of trust and stability. She is their earth. She is the one they can count on for the things that matter most of all. She is their food and their bed and the extra blanket when it grows cold in the night; she is their warmth and their health and their shelter; she is the one they want to be near when they cry. She is the only person in the whole world in a whole lifetime who can be these things to her children. There is no substitute for her. Somehow even her clothes feel different to her children's hands from anybody else's clothes. Only to touch her skirt or her sleeve makes a troubled child feel better.-Katharine Butler Hathaway

　　每个人都知道,一个好母亲给她孩子的感觉是信任和稳定。她是他们的家园。她是一个他们可以依靠的东西,最重要的事。她是他们的食物,他们的床，冬天里的毛毯,她是他们的温暖和他们的健康和他们的庇护;她是一个他们想依靠哭泣的地方。她是孩子的唯一。没有任何东西可以取代她。甚至她的衣服都令孩子感觉与众不同。只要能触摸她的裙子或袖子，一个不安的孩便能安睡。

　　The love of husbands and wives may waver; brothers and sisters may become deep-rooted enemies; but a mother's love is so strong and unyielding that it usually endures all circumstances: good fortune and misfortune, prosperity and privation, honor and disgrace. A mother's love perceives no impossibilities.-Paddock
