3. Tiny text from Emily Dickinson: [a] mother is one to whom you hurry when you are troubled.
4-5. Persuasion - Mrs. Musgrove, specifically.
4. Text is from Erich Fromm: Mother's love is peace. It need not be acquired, it need not be deserved.
5. Text is from Lin Yutang: Of all the right of women, the greatest is to be a mother.
6. Little House on the Prairie. Text is a quote from "Four Winds" by L.M. Montgomery: A mother is the best thing in the world.
7. The First Four Years. Tiny text is from Thomas C. Haliburton: A woman has two smiles that an angel might envy, the smile that accepts a lover before words are uttered, and the smile that lights on the first-born babe, and assures it of a mother's love.
8-9. Garden State. From the scene where Sam's mom scolds her about leaving Jelly's wheel in the cage, and the scene where Sam's mom gives Large a hug.
8. Text from a Jewish proverb: God could not be everywhere so He created mothers
9. Text from Jane Welsh Carlyle: Time is the only comforter for the loss of a mother.
10. Star Wars - the cover of "Rebel Dream," with Mara and baby Ben. Text is from Agatha Christie: A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.
