“On coming to the house, they (the Magi), saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. (Matthew 2:11) [This] adoration, too, was not the same as the worship of God. In my opinion they did not yet recognize him as God, but they acted in keeping with the custom mentioned in Scripture, according to which Kings and important people were worshiped; this did not mean more than falling down before them at their feet and honoring them.”

If we are really comfortable with our mother, we can even marry a woman who is a friend rather than an adversary, and form a true partnership.”

This silence of perfection prevents mothers from listening and learning from their daughters.”
