The very first sentence
of " Family sayings" by Natalia Ginzburg

"When I was a little girl at home, if one of us children upset a glass at table or dropped a knife, my father's voice bellowed: "Behave yourself !". If we soaked our bread in the gravy, he cried out, "Don't lick the plates, don't make messes and slops."


Have a good day
