Famous quotes containing the words match and/or undertaker:
“You watched and you saw what happened and in the accumulation of episodes you saw the pattern: Daddy ruled the roost, called the shots, made the money, made the decisions, so you signed up on his side, and fifteen years later when the women’s movement came along with its incendiary manifestos telling you to avoid marriage and motherhood, it was as if somebody put a match to a pile of dry kindling.”
—Anne Taylor Fleming (20th century)
“The shutters were drawn and the undertaker wiped his feet—
He was aware that this sort of thing had occurred before.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
