A father may turn his back on his child; brothers and sisters may become
inveterate enemies; husbands may desert their wives and wives their husbands.
But a mother's love endures through all; in good repute, in bad repute, in the
face of the world's condemnation, a mother still loves on, and still hopes that
her child may turn from his evil ways, and repent; still she remembers the
infant smiles that once filled her bosom with rapture, the merry laugh, the
joyful shout of his childhood, the opening promise of his youth; and she can
never be brought to think him all unworthy.
- Washington Irving
