Aunt Quote by Anonymous
“Aunt Loretta has something that maybe you could call class. It's not the made-up kind that Grandma has, fake pearls and Sunday hats, but something that comes to you as if you were born to the king and queen. Aunt Loretta understands better than Grandma that reading a big book is more classy than wearing fake pearls watching TV.”

![“[The] BBC was known as Auntie suggesting someone prudish and Victorian and that she still is on some days. On others she's a champagne-soaked floozie, her skirts in disarray, her mind in the gutter, and the mixture can be quite wonderful.” quote by Morley Safer](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/edb/morley-safer-17896_auntie_the-bbc-was-known-as-auntie-suggesting-s_689701.jpg)
