Charlton Heston, the man who brought Moses back to life in a movie entitled "The Ten Commandments" said, "I'm for mothers!"
"My 'Mom,' Carol, always told me that God doesn't give you anything you can't handle -- so, in our case, He must think we're pretty strong people." - Said
the actress who's inscribed photo hangs on the wall
of  Elijah, Pamela  Anderson
"Mothers play many roles throughout their lifetime: a nurse,
a cook, a chauffeur, a maid, a friend, a confidant, a teacher, a partner and a grandmother. Mothers are the source, the origin and the producer of life -- as well as nurturing, loving and protective."
This tribute is from the lady who was once described as "the most beautiful woman in films,"
the versatile...
Arlene Dahl
"My 'Mom,' Margaret Wilson, was a proud, devoted mother. She was always there to provide support, encouragement and, when necessary, a strong reminder of right and wrong. I remember her for the qualities of love, discipline, and responsibility she combined to make our home warm and nurturing. My mother truly summed up the word 'Mom' and I'm proud that she's included in this special tribute to mothers."
- California's Governor Pete Wilson
"I grew up in an era when the word 'mother' was not a 'hyphenate.' There was a very popular song called, 'My Mom,
I Love Her. -- My Mom, you'd love her... who wouldn't love her... my Mom.' That's the kind of Mom I had -- and I miss her."
Boxer Smokin' Joe Frazier is noted for promoting attributes that he learned as a child: "Credibility, Durability, Dedication, Discipline, Sacrifice, Loyalty, Honesty, and Hard Work." Joe said: "When I think of how my momma carried me for nine months inside her body while disfiguring it, making her have sleepless nights,
and then feeling the excruciating pain
of bringing me into the world -- I know
that being a mother is a great thing."
For those who still wonder what came first, the chicken or the egg, I believe that we can safely assume -- God made the chicken first. In similar fashion, He made Adam and Eve before the first child was born. Just as a chick depends upon nature to exist -- so do we, every soul who survives within a human body on Planet Earth.
MOTHER POWER... ...is a mauscript in my closet just waiting for a co-author
and publisher to make it available as a book. My mother in the photo at left is seen holding me in her lap at the time of my birth. I'd like more celebrities to give their thoughts about mothers so we can expand and refine this project.
