Dreams have only one owner at a time. That's why dreamers are lonely.

Housework can kill you if done right.

Remember, you can lead a fifty-seven-year-old body to motherhood, but you can't make it stay awake.

Seize the moment. Remember all those women on the 'Titanic' who waved off the dessert cart.

For some unexplained reason, it's always the other end of the table that's wild and raucous, with screaming laughter and a fella who plays 'Holiday for Strings' on water glasses.

I used everything you gave me.

I don't know why no one ever thought to paste a label on the toilet-tissue spindle giving 1-2-3 directions for replacing the tissue on it. Then everyone in the house would know what Mama knows.
