Phyllis Diller

Raising a kid is part joy and part guerilla warfare.
Ed Asner

My mother’s menu consisted of two choices: Take it or leave it.
 Buddy Hackett

If evolution really works, how come mothers only have two hands?
Milton Berle

Most children threaten at times to run away from home. This is the only thing that keeps some parents going.
Phyllis Diller

Mothers are all slightly insane.
J.D. Salinger

And I couldn’t resist these, either…
