Sometimes I think this is no longer my world.
E.B.
Matthew: You really think Emily was a part of it?
Herman: She laid with the man who killed your son. You heard her say guilty. Consider the cold light, Matthew.
Matthew: I came home mean sometimes. Maybe that's why she went with that guy.
Herman: It's in our blood. We have a weakness for degenerate femininity.
Matthew: My mother is not a degenerate. While you were here, living it up, my mother and me? We did with nothing. It's not easy. What we've been doing here. It's not easy, this deal.
Herman: It was cowardly of me. It was not Christian, and I would like to atone for that.
You're all in big, fucking trouble.
Della

Perry: I don't like it here.
E.B.: We do what we don't like so the greater good gets served. You more than anyone else should know that.
Perry: Do you know how many different types of thread there are in this city?
E.B.: You'll find it, boy-o. That's the kind of thing you're good at.

We only kept the females. I mean, when we were havin' litters. Not that we pushed the toms out, mind you. We're right Catholics. Mr. Trotter got a bucket and drown 'em. It's the humane thing to do.
Mrs. Trotter
Della: E.B. will take care of everything. Don't you worry.
Emily: Don't worry. We just went casket shopping for my son.
Do I pay you to answer the phone? Yes. I do.
E.B.
