“I taught school in the early days of my manhood and I think I know something about mothers. There is a thread of aspiration that runs strong in them. It is the fiber that has formed the most unselfish creatures who inhabit this earth. They want three things only; for their children to be fed, to be healthy, and to make the most of themselves.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“There is a comfort in the strength of love;
‘Twill make a thing endurable, which else
Would overset the brain, or break the heart:”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
