To be a mother is the greatest vocation in the world. No being has a position of such great power and influence. She holds in her hands the destiny of nations, for to her is necessarily committed the making of the nation?s citizens.

Two dogs fight for a bone and a third runs away with it.
J. R. R. Tolkien, fully John Ronald Reuel Tolkien
