This collection holds 9 father me mother quotes, drawn from writers, leaders, artists and thinkers across the QuoteForever archive. The most quoted voices here are Finty Williams, Desmond Dekker and Madeleine Albright.

They are ordered so that each author has a say before anyone repeats, which means the first page gives you the range of the topic rather than one writer's back catalogue.

Use the grid and list views to change how much of each quote you see, follow an author's name to read everything else they said, or open a quote on its own page to copy it, share it, or turn it into a picture quote.

My mother very bravely put me into rehab two weeks after my father died.

Then my mother was taken ill and died and my father took me to St. Mary's.

The only thing I have to go by is what my mother and father told me, how I was brought up.

My father required me to honor my father and my mother too much to put up games on them. I did on occasion.

My father, obviously, and my mother were inspirations. My uncle, Frank Harper, he was an absolute mentor for me.

My mother and father were both much more remarkable than any story of mine can make them. They seem to me just mythically wonderful.

I told my mother at about the seventh year of therapy that I had been abused sexually by my father, and she hung up the phone on me.

All of them - my father, mother, step-mother, and grandmother - were all wonderful actors and performers and they are an inspiration to me, both in their craft and in their humanity.

I began writing poems when I was about eight, with a heavy assist from my mother. She read me Arthur Waley's translations and Whitman and Robinson Jeffers, who have been lifelong influences on me. My father read Keats to me, and then he read more Keats while I was lying on the sofa struggling with asthma.
