When it comes to on-screen witches, Morticia Addams is one of our favorites. Because, as excited as we are to see Anne Hathaway star in the remake of The Witches, there’s no one quite like this goth matriarch, as evidenced by the classic Morticia Addams quotes.

Morticia Addams Quotes

Whether your favorite Morticia (nee Frump) was played by Carolyn Jones or Angelica Huston, did you know she wasn’t entirely fictional? Cartoonist Charles Addams actually based the spooky head of the Addams family with the flowing black hair, entrancing eyes, and quick wit on his wife, Barbara Day.
