About This Quote

The quote, “Holy mother!” was said by Hephaestus, the blacksmith god of fire and metalworking. He was shocked at the sight of what he thought was his mother. His mother was actually Hera, the wife of Zeus. The original meaning is far more interesting than the modern use. The original meaning of this quote is that mothers are often referred to as “holy” or “godly” because they are so revered and respected.

The phrase could also be used as a way of referring to any significant other who is revered by their partner. For example, if someone says, “Holy cow!” that person could be referring to their partner or it could just be a simple exclamation of surprise or shock.
