10 Mother's Day Quotes for My Mother

My Mentor, My Guide

Mother: my mentor, the giver and keeper of my life. She holds the key to my existence, whether she knows it or not. Her love and comfort shielded me from a world of bullies as a child, and her common sense guides me as an adult. In honor of all of our mothers, I have scoured the internet, books, greeting cards, and other sources to find the best Mother's Day quotes. In my search, I avoided the quotes that show up too frequently, as many have already found them. What I searched for are the quotes that not are relevant, but obscure yet heartfelt. These are the quotes I found. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
