Bombeck

Famous quotes containing the word bombeck:

    Children make your life important.
    —Erma Bombeck (late 20th–century)

    Mothers are not the nameless, faceless stereotypes who appear once a year on a greeting card with their virtues set to prose, but women who have been dealt a hand for life and play each card one at a time the best way they know how. No mother is all good or all bad, all laughing or all serious, all loving or all angry. Ambivalence rushes through their veins.
    —Erma Bombeck (20th century)

    You hear a lot of dialogue on the death of the American family. Families aren’t dying. They’re merging into big conglomerates.
    —Erma Bombeck (b. 1927)
