A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
妈妈
Mom
A Modern Mom to me is not always someone that juggles a career and family. A Modern Mom is a woman who takes care of herself on the inside and the outside.
对我来说,现代妈妈并不总是要兼顾事业和家庭。现代妈妈是一个从内到外照顾自己的女人。
We had to give each other permission to be different as parents. That's why there's a mom and a dad with two different approaches, because you do need both.
我们必须允许彼此成为不同的父母。这就是为什么一个妈妈和一个爸爸有两种不同的方法,因为你需要两种方法。
In her whole life Mom never earned more than five or six dollars a week. Being without a husband, it was hard for her to find any place at all for us to live.
妈妈一生中每周挣的钱从来没有超过五六块。因为没有丈夫,她很难找到我们住的地方。
All of us kids ended up 'doing Mom.' There are four of us who've tried show business. Five if you insist on counting my sister the nun, who does liturgical dance.
我们这些孩子最终都成了“妈妈”。“我们四个人都尝试过演艺圈。五,如果你坚持把我妹妹也算进去,她是修女,参加礼拜舞会。
I felt I couldn't be a good mom anymore, but I didn't want my children to grow up without a mom. I felt I had to end our lives to protect us from any grief or harm.

I wanted to escape so badly. But of course I knew I couldn't just give up and leave school. It was only when I heard my mom's voice that I came out of my hiding place.
我非常想逃跑。但是,我当然知道我不能就这样放弃学业离开学校。只有当我听到妈妈的声音,我才从我的藏身之处出来。
The natural state of motherhood is unselfishness. When you become a mother, you are no longer the center of your own universe. You relinquish that position to your children.
母亲的自然状态是无私的。当你成为一个母亲,你就不再是你自己世界的中心。你把那个职位让给你的孩子。
My mom had this romantic notion of her children playing classical music. The idea is you learn it when you're still learning language. It's using the same part of the brain.
我妈妈有一个浪漫的想法,她的孩子们演奏古典音乐。这个想法是,当你还在学习语言的时候,你就已经学会了。它使用的是大脑的同一部分。
My mom was sarcastic about men. She would tell me Adam was the rough draft and Eve was the final product. She was a feminist minister, an earth mom who wore a bra only on Sundays.
我妈妈对男人很刻薄。她会告诉我亚当是初稿,夏娃是最终成品。她是一位女权主义部长,一位只在周日穿胸罩的地球母亲。
Our parents are obviously proud, but they're still trying to get used to the fact that we're in a band. I have a feeling my mom would actually like One Direction if I wasn't in it!
我们的父母显然很自豪,但他们仍在努力适应我们是乐队成员的事实。我有一种感觉,如果我不在其中,我妈妈会喜欢一个方向!
My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother. I attribute all my success in life to the moral, intellectual and physical education I received from her.
我妈妈是我见过的最漂亮的女人。我的一切都归功于我的母亲。我一生中所有的成功都归功于我从她那里接受的道德、智力和体育教育。
I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always say because it's such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive, but I have photographs of her.
我问人们为什么他们的墙上有鹿头。他们总是说,因为它是如此美丽的动物。那就这样吧。我觉得我妈妈很迷人,但我有她的照片。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
My mom thought I might be good for voiceover. She thought I had a cute voice, so maybe I could do a cartoon or something. And while we were looking into that, we also thought I should get into theater acting, so I tried it and the first audition I went on, I booked it. And it kind of just snowballed from there.
我妈妈认为我可能适合做画外音。她觉得我的声音很可爱,也许我可以做个卡通什么的。当我们在考虑这个问题的时候,我们也认为我应该进入戏剧表演领域,所以我试了试,第一次试镜就预定了。然后就像滚雪球一样越滚越大。
Mothers always find ways to fit in the work - but then when you're working, you feel that you should be spending time with your children and then when you're with your children, you're thinking about working.

Always it gave me a pang that my children had no lawful claim to a name.

That's the hardest thing about being a mom. You want to be cool, and you want them to like you all the time, but you can't always have that. You're gonna have times where you have to say no, and you won't be the most popular person in the house.
这是做母亲最难的事情。你想变酷,你想让他们一直喜欢你,但你不能总是这样。你会有不得不说不的时候,你也不会是家里最受欢迎的人。

I am truly my mother's son.
