Edith Evans Quotes:
Lady Bracknell:

Mrs. Tanner: I'm just going to have a look at me husband's grave, make sure it's kept nice. You know, if you don't keep an eye on things people steal the flower boxes and grass grows all over the place. I wouldn't want him to think I was neglecting him.
Mrs. Ross: Are you there?
