Famous quotes containing the word son:

    Muriel Bedford: It isn’t every day that your only son gets married.
    Judge Bedford: He’s your son, too, Muriel. I mean it’s about time you started taking half the blame.
    Dale Launer (b. 1953)

    Mothers easily become jealous of their sons’ friends when they are particularly successful. As a rule a mother loves herself in her son more than she does the son himself.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Vigil strange I kept on the field one night;
    When you my son and my comrade dropt at my side that day,
    One look I but gave which your dear eyes return’d with a look I
    shall never forget,
    One touch of your hand to mine O boy, reach’d up as you lay on the ground,
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
