Bombeck

Famous quotes containing the word bombeck:

    With girls, everything looks great on the surface. But beware of drawers that won’t open. They contain a three-month supply of dirty underwear, unwashed hose, and rubber bands with blobs of hair in them.
    —Erma Bombeck (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)

    It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.
    —Erma Bombeck (20th century)
