Erma Bombeck Quotes


"A friend doesn't go on a diet because you are fat. A friend never defends a husband who gets his wife an electric skillet for her birthday. A friend will tell you she saw your old boyfriend - and he's a priest." ~Emma Bombeck, b. 1927

"Children make your life important." ~Erma Bombeck

“...I remember thinking how often we look, but never see...we listen, but never hear...we exist, but never feel. We take our relationships for granted. A house is only a place. It has no life of its own. It needs human voices, activity and laughter to come alive.” ~Erma Bombeck from Waking Wonder

"If life is a bowl of cherries, then what am I doing in the pits?" ~Erma Bombeck

"It is not until you become a mother that your judgment slowly turns to compassion and understanding." ~Erma Bombeck

"The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another’s desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, 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

"There is a thin line that separates laughter and pain, comedy and tragedy, humor and hurt." ~Erma Bombeck

"When humor goes, there goes civilization." ~Erma Bombeck

"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
