Observations about some men and their mothers

Never marry a man who hates his mother, because he'll end up hating you.
~ Jill Bennett

Men are what their mothers made them.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Unhappy is the man for whom his own mother has not made all other mothers venerable.
~ Richter

It takes a woman twenty years to make a man of her son, and another woman twenty minutes to make a fool of him.
~ Helen Rowland

Children are the sum of what mothers contribute to their lives.
~ Unknown

No man succeeds without a good woman behind him. Wife or mother, if it is both, he is twice blessed indeed.
~ Harold Macmillan

If you could choose your parents,... we would rather have a mother who felt a sense of guilt—at any rate who felt responsible, and felt that if things went wrong it was probably her fault—we’d rather have that than a mother who immediately turned to an outside thing to explain everything, and said it was due to the thunderstorm last night or some quite outside phenomenon and didn’t take responsibility for anything.
~ D.W. Winnicott
