We are a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. - Erma Bombeck | Friendship Quotes 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 | Friendship Quotes I am not a glutton-I am an explorer of food. - Erma Bombeck | Self-Knowledge Quotes It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows. - Erma Bombeck | Self-Control Quotes It takes a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else. - Erma Bombeck | Courage Quotes There are people who put their dreams in a little box and say, "Yes, I've got dreams, of course, I've got dreams." Then they put the box away and bring it out once in a while to look in it, and yep, they're still there. These are great dreams, but they never even get out of the box.

That's where courage comes in. - Erma Bombeck | Women's Movement Quotes When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me." - Erma Bombeck | Commitment Quotes Marriage has no guarantees.

When could I strike him? When he is kissing me on my birthday? When he's recuperating from measles? Do I slap the Bible out of his hand on Sunday? - Erma Bombeck | Family Quotes Never lend your car to someone you've given birth to. - Erma Bombeck | Family Quotes I've been on a constant diet for the last two decades. I've lost a total of 789 pounds. By all accounts, I should be hanging from a charm bracelet. - Erma Bombeck | Health Quotes What's with you men? Would hair stop growing on your chest if you asked directions somewhere? - Erma Bombeck | Men and Women Quotes My mother phones daily to ask, "Did you just try to reach me?" When I reply no, she adds, "So, if you're not too busy, call me while I'm still alive," . . . and hangs up. - Erma Bombeck | Mothers and Fathers Quotes
