Gloria Quote #412
Quote from Gloria in The Old Man & The Tree
Pilar: Did you ever think maybe there's a reason she sends you that gift?
Claire: Yeah, 'cause she found something when I was 8 years old that I actually liked, and she hasn't thought about it since.
Pilar: Well, maybe she thinks about it a lot. Maybe she remembers a time when she made you happy, and she wants to go back there.
Claire: Well, now I feel terrible. The only thing I sent her was an e-card.
Pilar: We don't like to admit it but mothers never get over the day their daughters leave them. We never stop needing our little girls.
Gloria: I will never stop needing you, mama.

Quote from Luke
Luke: [aside to camera] I'm in charge of the recycling. I'm supposed to bring it from the garage to the curb by 6:00 A.M. Thursday morning. I may have missed a few weeks. Maybe more than a few weeks. After a while, the pile just got so big, I couldn't bring it out the night before or people would ask questions. I don't need people asking questions.
Quote from Gloria
Pilar: This is your great-grandmother's recipe. If she could see you now, she would die again, because you're doing it wrong!
[aside to camera:]
Gloria: My mother has been here all week. I love her very much, but you know what they say: house guests start to stink after three days, like dead bodies.
Quote from Manny
Jay: What the hell is that?

Jay: Not if the environment is my living room.
Manny: Look, I admit, it takes some getting used to, but so did Greek yogurt. Now I can't even remember how the old stuff tastes.
