- Matilda: I've got to go to school. I'm late already. I've got a science test second period.
- Beatrice: Pshh. Science, huh? Well, you tell Mr. Goodman there's a lot of work to be done around here, so he'd better not count on you spending your days with half-life. Tell him if he wants to find out about half-life, he can come and ask me; I'm the original half-life. I've got one daughter with half a mind, the other who's half a test tube, a house half-full of rabbit crap and half a corpse. That's a half-life, all right. Jesus, don't you hate the world, Matilda?
- Beatrice: I'm not exactly happy about you standing around, discussing testicles with this Chris Burns person, either!
- Beatrice: [as Nanny Annie slurps her honey/water] If anybody had ever told me when I was younger I'd end up feeding honey to a zombie I'd have told them they were crazy. I'd be better off driving a cab.
