The call to be a mother and do it well, is what changes the world.  We’ve captured what statesmen (Abraham Lincoln, John Quincy Adams) and key cultural influencers said about their mothers. “Remember to call your mother.” 

 “I remember my Mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.” – Abraham Lincoln

 “ God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.” – Jewish Proverb

”A mother is a person who, seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.” – Tenneva Jordan

”All that I am, my Mother made me.” John Quincy <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = “urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags” />Adams

 “And so our mothers and grandmothers have, more often than not anonymously, handed on the creative spark, the seed of the flower they themselves never hoped to see — or like a sealed letter they could not plainly read.” – Alice Walker
