Quotes
-
Sister Mary : American women must maintain the house. A slovenly-kept home breeds apathy in children as well as disease, not to mention the wrath of the husband who built the home. He made it, you clean it. Line yourselves against the wall facing me. When I say, you will sweep to the edge in my direction. Now sweep.
-
Sister Mary : Sweep it to the edge then grab a dust pan and sweep it off the edge into the pan. Then take it to the field and dump it.
-
Sister Mary : Lord Jesus, be our guest. We ask you to bless this food. That it may nourish us and sustain us.
-
Sister Mary : Place your wet linen on the board and stretch it out. Grab the bar of soap and run the bar of soap over the linen until it suds. And now run the linen over the board and one-two-three-four, dunk in the water, turn it over, stretch it out. Grab the bar of soap and run it over the linen one, two, three, four.
