Quotes 

• Mrs. Peabody : [in Henry's dream]  Now, Henry, I don't want to reproach you, but I want you to feel like a dirty little rat, Sweetheart.

• Mrs. Peabody : I see a great deal more than you see. Of course, you haven't got the worries that I have. Not that I'm complaining, dear. But, you don't have to sit here day after day and week after week, year in and year out, paying the iceman for the milk, the milkman for the ice. Of course, Henry, if you want to go on breaking as much china as you feel like, that's entirely your own affair, Henry.

• Mrs. Peabody : But of course, Henry, if its your time of life and you want to go out and make a fool of yourself, I'm not one to whimper and cry.

• Mrs. Peabody : You've no idea, Henry, how I have to defend you to our friends. Of course, I understand you can't help breaking all that china, but, naturally, they think it's rather queer.

• Mrs. Peabody : Henry, you've been feeding that rabbit again.

• Mrs. Peabody : There are some things a woman understands things that a man never can. You can say what you like, Henry, but unless a girl is well-dressed these days, she hasn't much chance of marrying anyone worthwhile. You remember *I* was the best-dressed girl in town when you married me.
