Terry Pratchett, Wintersmith“Mam said I was growing up. I felt that I was dying.”
Delia Sherman, Steampunk! An Anthology of Fantastically Rich and Strange Stories“Pardon me Mam,I'm new in town, could you please show me the way to your house?”
Frank Calvin Mann“Plus he was naturally lucky at cards. As Mam had always said, lucky at cards, or lucky at life. One or the other. Not both.”
Cinda Williams Chima, The Exiled Queen“This will be Great Mam's last spring. Her last June apples. Her last fresh roasting ears from the garden.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Homeland and Other Stories“Mam was always saying we had a simple diet: tea and bread, bread and tea, a liquid and a solid, a balanced diet - what more do you need? Nobody got fat.”
Frank McCourt“This, it occurred to me, was the deeper meaning in the mournful merriment I had been part of that day. I stood at Mam's sink before bedtime, filling an iced tea glass with water, thinking that I had underestimated this place where I was born. I knew it was a good place to be from. I had no idea how great a place it was to be.”

That is how I would mark the beginning of my life: the way people mark the end of one. My family had gathered at Papa Joe's house because Mam' Grace was slipping away, only I didn't register it that way. For some reason I thought that it was her birthday.”
Charles M. Blow“- Chodź, Słoniczko, mam Ci coś ważnego do powiedzenia - powiedziała Mama-słoń pewnego razu, gdy pod wieczór pomarańczowe słońce wtapiało się w pomarańczową pustynię, a stado szarych słoni w szarym zmierzchu wyglądało jak stado cieni. - ”
