Called Mother

Famous quotes containing the words called and/or mother:

    Another great evil arising from this desire to be thought rich; or rather, from the desire not to be thought poor, is the destructive thing which has been honoured by the name of “speculation”; but which ought to be called Gambling.

    Mother and maiden
    Was never none but she;
    Well may such a lady
    Goddes mother be.
