Give me good mothers and I will give you a good nation.

One circumstance that helped our character development: we were needed. I often think today of what an impact could be made if children believed they were contributing to a family's essential survival and happiness.

The future destiny of a child is always the work of the mother.

That strong mother doesn't tell her cub, Son, stay weak so the wolves can get you. She says, Toughen up, this is reality we are living in.

I never had, like, a nanny that took care of me. My mom always fed me breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

My father wouldn't get us a TV, he wouldn't allow a TV in the house.
