2->''"She is a lady indeed, although my limited experience of her suggests that she is also a mixture of the warrior queen Boadicea without the chariot, Catherine de' Medici without the poisoned rings, and Attila the Hun without his wonderful sense of fun. Do not play cards with her, because she cheats like a Mississippi bustout dealer, keep sherry away from her, do everything she says, and we might all live."''

19->'''Berengaria:''' I don't understand it, Pepin. You always seem to expect some affection from me.
20->'''Pepin:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Well, after all these years, I think "expect" is a little strong]].
21->'''Berengaria:''' Quite why you feel that my being your mother should earn you a place in my heart is beyond me. You made my belly swell up for nine long months and you ruined my figure forever! At best I should find the inconvenience of your birth rather irritating.
22->'''Pepin:''' I'm sorry.
23->'''Berengaria:''' And at worst, [[ApologizesALot your constant apologizing]] aggravates my [[AdiposeRex gout!]]

26->This is ''not'' your daughter. Do you understand? Her name is Eleanor, and ''she is '''mine.''' '' Now... [[KneelBeforeZod kneel, please]]. Remove your helmet. [[CompellingVoice Now, take the pistol]]. Place it against your head. ''' ''[[PsychicAssistedSuicide Fire]].'' '''

29->'''Greg:''' You think my gram is an evil criminal mastermind who's scamming consumers, and I should believe you?
30->'''Katie:''' I know. And I don't expect you to believe me-
31->'''Greg:''' Well, I do. She's the worst. Her grandson's in the hospital and she doesn't visit.
32->'''Katie:''' So, what are you saying?
33->'''Greg:''' I'm saying I'm in. Let's take this bitch down.

45->''"I was her son. Her property. She would hurt or kill people at the drop of a hat if it would achieve her goals. That's the kind of person who raised me and taught me how to survive. So what kind of education do you think I got from her? She only ever taught me how to manipulate people. While other mothers read picture books, she read me psychology books. Her teachings are rooted in my core. That's why I do the same thing she does without even being conscious of it... I'm nothing more than just her clone."''

49->Martha Kent, for me, has always been the moral backbone for Superman. She's the one who anchors him to humanity and instils the moral code that results in him fighting his never ending battle. This is [[InNameOnly definitely not that]].

52->Usually ''{{ComicStrip/Momma}}'' focuses on Momma as an overbearing, controlling monster who insists on being negative about every aspect of her children’s’ lives, and to my mind, the strip doesn’t spend enough time exploring another aspect of her personality: her bottomless greed....Momma also just straight up wants money, and since she’s old and unemployable and presumably living on some combination of Social Security and her late husband’s meager pension, her only hope of accessing money comes from her children. I mean, look at this! She’s literally sitting in a boat full of money with dollar signs floating over her head sailing towards what appears to be [[ImpossiblyCoolWealth a gold-plated mansion]] and she’s never been happier in her life. It’s like she’s in a rap video, for pete’s sake.

55->As Bobby was dying in Los Angeles, a sister rang their mother to report on his condition. Rose's response was swift: 'Now, [[WeHaveReserves Teddy must run.]]' For crude Rose, this world is just a staging area for that great touch-football field in the sky, where all the lads will be reunited forever. Although, according to the strict ground rules of Rose's faith, if father Joe was going to be in on the game, the playing field would have to be located somewhere below rather than above.

58->I began to lift out three or four large cans of paint from the backseat, which was also crammed with ten newly-sharped hoes I had collected. 'Never mind the paint! There's clearing up to do first!' screeched the old witch. 'It's time for ''real'' work again!' ...I reached the bundle, and fell out the back of the car, and drawing one hoe, I took aim at the screeching old bitch and [[TantrumThrowing hurled it straight toward her face.]] But old she-devils don't die that easy. She ducked and turned to look where the hoe had landed, and scurried to pick it up and defend herself. 'Who bought that shirt you're wearing?!' she wailed as she stooped to pick up the hoe--and as she did so, she ripped off a tremendous fart. That should have eased the tension and perhaps saved my mind, too. But no. She straightened up and, turning towards me, she said, 'You're common ''and'' disgusting, too!' As if it was ''me'' who'd farted! [[ThisMeansWar That did it]]. Hoe after hoe flew towards her. I was utterly frantic, but not one got to her. She ducked and weaved and skipped and pantied, and all the while shrieking, 'Take that shirt off, you kept man! Kept man!' And like a banshee, I ran screaming across the field to where I lived about a mile away.
59-->--'''Creator/TomBaker''' on his mother-in-law, ''Who On Earth is Tom Baker?''

61->You know her as the [[DragonLady Tiger Mother]], of course. Chua, who wrote an entire book about being the world's strictest mother and did nothing to counter the shallow stereotype that Chinese parents are [[StopBeingStereotypical as emotionally accessible as a pair of boulders]], existed this year specifically so that parents could read her book and say, ''"Fuck that lady. And fuck China."'' Listen, Amy Chua. Just because you spent hours every night pushing the violin on your daughter doesn't make ''me'' the asshole. If anything, I'm gonna be an even lazier parent thanks to you.

64->If you told PMK that E! will give her family another spin-off show if she [[DealWithTheDevil 69ed with Lucifer,]] she’d shrug and tell you that she’s been there, done that, but she’ll gladly do it again. If you promised PMK everlasting wealth and fame if she sold her entire family into the hands of the head of an underground sex slavery ring, she’d grab a price label gun and immediately [[ChildrenAreAWaste shoot a $3.00 tag onto Khloe’s forehead.]]

67->Kate’s latest contribution to the ''You’re Still Here?'' files is a cookbook titled ''[='=]Kate Gosselin’s Love Is in the Mix: Making Meals into Memories[='=]''. Recipes include 'Stewed [[HenpeckedHusband Jon Balls]]', 'Slow Cooked [[LifeDrinker Children’s Spirit Smothered In Crushed Dreams]]' and 'Sugar Cookies [[HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood Everyone In Group Therapy]] Is Going To Love'... It must have been a busy weekend at the Gosselin household with Kate standing behind the kids, smacking a ruler on her hand and screaming, [='=]'''''[[Literature/MommieDearest NO. NEGATIVE. REVIEWS.
