About
I was raised by a single mother who made a way for me.

Movies
Been
There've been a few mother-daughter movies that are somewhat realistic. But the mother-son movies are more comical than realistic: 'Throw Momma from the Train,' 'Stop! or My Mom Will Shoot.' You don't sit in the dark and go, 'Oh my God, that's my mother.'

- Alexis Ohanian
Education
Mommy

- Alicia Vikander
Allow
Affect
I've actually suffered from allergies my entire life. My mom had allergies, so I was aware of what an issue they can be. Many people allow their allergies to affect their lives.

- Alison Sweeney
Single
Single Mom
I was a single mom.
- Allison Anders
Play
Soup
Whenever I've done a sketch in which I'm asked to play a mom, my brain goes to Minnesota. It makes the character seem matronly, warm, the kind of person that takes care of you and brings you Campbell's soup when you're sick. It's a great shortcut.
- Allison Tolman

Manner
Just as a mother finds pleasure in taking her little child on her lap, there to feed and caress him, in like manner our loving God shows His fondness for His beloved souls who have given themselves entirely to Him and have placed all their hope in His goodness.

- Amy Chua
Week
More
Depending on what day of the week it is and what time of the month it is, I'm a good friend or not a good friend. I'm more or less a good mom or not a good mom, more or less a good mate or not a good mate. That's just life, whether or not you're public.
- Amy Grant
I Remember
Theatrical
I was always a drama queen. I remember playing in the kitchen, trying to get my mom to think I was dead and call the police. When she didn't, I would cry. I was always theatrical. I don't think any of my relatives are surprised.
- Amy Lee
Overwhelmed
New Baby
When you have a new baby, you can get really overwhelmed, since it's such a huge responsibility. You're thrilled to be a mom, but your sleep schedule is so thrown off and it can be scary if you don't have a good support system.

By The Time

Soul
Before
My mom had a produce business in in Oxnard, and we used to take these long trips to talk to farmers and different distributors. She'd take us with her after picking us up from school, and she'd be blasting all this old soul music and R&B. I knew all those O'Jays songs before I knew Snoop or Dre or Tupac.
- Anderson Paak
Young
Died
As I celebrate life, I can't help but think how young my mom was when she died of a heart attack at 53. My mom didn't get to meet her grandchildren, but I'm determined to watch mine grow up.

Whatsoever

My Life
Good Person
I've never lived my life in the opinion of others. I believe I'm a good person. I believe I'm a good mom. But that's for my kids to decide, not for the world.
- Angelina Jolie
Happy
Still
Of course, my mom is my biggest and loudest cheerleader, and my family and friends are happy for me, but I'm still just Angie, not Angie-the-author-with-this-hyped-up-book. I appreciate that.
- Angie Thomas
Means
Given
Completeness? Happiness? These words don't come close to describing my emotions. There truly is nothing I can say to capture what motherhood means to me, particularly given my medical history.
- Anita Baker
Love
About
As others have recently suggested, the term 'gamer' is no longer useful as an identity because games are for everyone. These days, even my mom spends an inordinate amount of time gaming on her iPad. So I'll take a cue from my younger self and say I don't care about being a 'gamer,' but I sure do love video games.
- Anita Sarkeesian
Woman
Career
Clearly, society has a tremendous stake in insisting on a woman's natural fitness for the career of mother: the alternatives are all too expensive.
- Ann Oakley
Country
Big
It's the moms of this nation - single, married, widowed - who really hold this country together. We're the mothers, we're the wives, we're the grandmothers, we're the big sisters, we're the little sisters, we're the daughters. You know it's true, don't you? You're the ones who always have to do a little more.
- Ann Romney
Got
Boobs
I've never felt like I've exactly traded on my looks. When I was a teenager, I was an ultra late bloomer, and my mom would say it was a blessing because it means you never have to wonder if guys are only interested in you because you've got boobs.
- Anna Kendrick
Problem
Solver
My mom was a problem solver.
- Anne Wojcicki
Dad
Moved
My dad is from India, my mom is from Russia. Fortunately, we moved a lot. I went to a lot of different schools and completely different cultures, so that's my background.
- Annet Mahendru
Mother
Been
Of all the roles I've played, none has been as fulfilling as being a mother.
- Annette Funicello
Media
Instagram
Technology moves so fast and social media moves so fast because everyone wants the new thing, but also, everyone wants to be where their parents are not. Once the mom got a Facebook and a Twitter and an Instagram, I don't want to be there anymore.

Father
I Remember

Doing
Give
The fastest way to break the cycle of perfectionism and become a fearless mother is to give up the idea of doing it perfectly - indeed to embrace uncertainty and imperfection.

Think
Guilt
I think while all mothers deal with feelings of guilt, working mothers are plagued by guilt on steroids!

Singer
Could

Fonder

Mother
She
Mother is far too clever to understand anything she does not like.

Reason

- Ashlee Simpson
Feeling
Had
As a little girl, I was athletic: 'Oh, mom, look at me. I can do cartwheels.' I was one of those annoying kids. I craved the spotlight. I had the feeling since I was little that the stage was my home.
- Ashley Leggat
Everyone
Checks
Everyone checks out my mom. My mom's hot.
- Ashley Scott
TV
Whole
The family on my mom's side, their whole business is inventing and pitching stuff. My grandfather is in infomercials. He's a pitchman, so if you're ever watching TV late at night, you'll probably see him pitching knives. My great-grandfather also invented the plastic cheese grater.
- Ashley Tisdale
Always
Sure
I've always wanted to be sure my parents approve of what I do. Even with my tattoos, my mom went with me.
- Ashley Tisdale
Practice
House
My mom devised a plan to get me out of the house and gave me the choice between ballet or skating. She knew both of those sports were time-consuming and would keep me busy with hours of practice.
- Ashley Wagner
Every Day
Before
Motherhood is a great honor and privilege, yet it is also synonymous with servanthood. Every day women are called upon to selflessly meet the needs of their families. Whether they are awake at night nursing a baby, spending their time and money on less-than-grateful teenagers, or preparing meals, moms continuously put others before themselves.
- Charles Stanley
Singer
Dad
I wanted to do 'Oh Shenandoah' because that's the town I was born in - as a tribute to my mom and dad for giving me all this music. I don't really sing this as a singer, because I'm not a singer. But I wanted to do it for them.
- Charlie Haden
Staying
Brought
When I get high anxiety, I vomit. My mom was so stressed out. Then I found out I was staying in John Mayer's old dorm room, and I had a nice roommate. That completely brought me down. I was completely comfortable at Berklee.

Think
Aims
You know, I don't think any mother aims to be a single mom. I didn't wish for that, but it happened.

My Own
Encouraging
My mom has made it possible for me to be who I am. Our family is everything. Her greatest skill was encouraging me to find my own person and own independence.
- Charlize Theron
Confident
Mine
I can only hope to be 10 percent of the mom mine was to me. She encouraged me to be confident and enjoy life. That's what I want for my son.
- Charlize Theron
Perfect
Very
They very seldom let me lose my cool. They made me like I was Polly Perfect, which was ridiculous so that when I bump into kids on the street they'd say 'I wish my Mom were like you.'
- Charlotte Rae
Kid
Blue Eyes
There was a point - when I was a kid - where I said I wanted to be like Luke Skywalker, with blond hair and blue eyes. My mom right there told me to never be ashamed of who I am.
- Chaske Spencer
Memory
Big
My earliest memory is my mom picking me up after I had fallen down, giving me a big hug and reading me 'Goodnight Moon.' From that moment, to this one, every single memory I have of my mom is that regardless of what was happening in her life, she was always, always there for me.
- Chelsea Clinton
Private
Out
I only do private room karaoke where it's just me and one of my closest girlfriends. My mom always said I could really belt songs out, and the Dixie Chicks feed that encouragement.

Whole
Ended
My whole life sort of ended when my mom died.
- Cheryl Strayed
Mother
Treat
My mother taught me to treat a lady respectfully.
- Chris Brown
Doing
Around
I didn't understand that I could sing until I was like 11 or 12. My mom heard me singing around the house and she said, What are you doing? You really can sing! So then I started going to school and singing to the girls.
- Chris Brown
Respect
Choose
And the greatest lesson that mom ever taught me though was this one. She told me there would be times in your life when you have to choose between being loved and being respected. Now she said to always pick being respected.
- Chris Christie
Very
Dad
My mom and dad got divorced, so it was one of those things where Sundays I'd go to Dad's apartment, and this was, say, 1970-whatever, and it had a pool table on the top floor in a very traditional kind of divorced-dad apartment building.
- Chris Eigeman
Thought
I Remember
I remember one time when all the nuns in my Catholic grade school got around in a semicircle, me and Mom in the middle, and they said, 'Mrs. Farley, the children at school are laughing at Christopher, not with him.' I thought, 'Who cares? As long as they're laughing.'
- Chris Farley
Surrounded
Actress
My nana was an actress, my mom was an actress, and my sister, too. So because I was surrounded by it, it really came naturally.
- Chris Pine
Going
Waitress
I'm not a figurehead for anything. I was a single mom with two kids. What else was I going to do? It was either be in a band or be a waitress.
- Chrissie Hynde
Had
Dad
My parents waited to have me and my sister - my dad was 43 when my mother had me, and my mom was 38. They purposefully waited until they had had their adventures in life so that we wouldn't represent the end of their freedom.
- Christian Borle
Mother
Larger
My mother thinks I could have even run a larger company.

I Remember
Grammys
I remember watching the Grammys and looking at the performances and crying to my mom, saying how much I wanted to be there.

Happy
Took
I'm happy that I took time off to become a mom and raise my daughter properly and build a bond between the two of us.
- Christina Milian
Career
Box
My real last name is Flores, and Milian is actually my mom's maiden name. So it's not made up, which is cool; it runs in the family. And it actually worked out better for my career to have the last name Milian, because Flores kept me in a little box, and no one really associated me with the last name Flores.
- Christina Milian
Been
Horror
I've been a fan of 'Rocky Horror'... my mom let me see it at a really early age.
- Christina Milian
