My mom was a source of strength. She showed me by example that women, regardless of how difficult life may get, can do it all.

My mom was the strongest woman I know.

My mother was a very wise and strong person.

Seeing my mother become very strong and very independent had a huge impact on me.

My mother was a very difficult woman to please. She was the sort of woman who thought that if I were praised I would get above myself.

I've had a very supportive mother my entire life, so I've had strong women around me.

When I was a child, my father taught me to put up my fists like a boy and to be prepared to defend myself at all times.

I got a mother who's very strong after taking the whippings that she took from my father.

I'm used to very strong women because my mother was particularly strong, and my father was away all the time. My mother was a big part of bringing up three boys, so I was fully versed in the strength of a powerful woman, and accepted that as the status quo.
