Dr. Jonathan Newman: Anyway, you'll never guess what happened. I'm sitting in this bar in Nairobi when who do I see? My roommate from Harvard! He decided to go someplace exotic where he didn't know a soul either.
Blanche: Small world, isn't it?
Dr. Jonathan Newman: Not from where I'm standing.
Blanche: I did it again. I apologize. Please forgive me.
Dorothy: Oh, Blanche, I'm sure he was only joking.
Dr. Jonathan Newman: Don't be self-conscious about my height. I'm not.
Blanche: Really?
Dr. Jonathan Newman: Really! Look, everybody has something about themselves they'd like to change. The trick is getting beyond it. Now, don't get me wrong, I'd love to know what it feels like to be the center on the Boston Celtics, but all in all, I'm pretty happy with who I am.
Rose: Oh, God, he gives me goose bumps when he talks like that.

Dorothy: What a delightful man. You know, he has the most positive attitude of anyone I have ever met.
Blanche: And he's wearing the cutest little gray suit I think I've ever seen.
Dorothy: You just can't help yourself, can you, Blanche?

Sophia: I'm home.
Dorothy: Ma, what are you doing here?
Sophia: There was no reason to stay.
Blanche: I thought your grandson's graduation was next week.
Sophia: There isn't gonna be a graduation. The big dope failed.
Dorothy: Ma, you're kidding.
Sophia: You wouldn't be surprised if you saw him. Twenty-two-years-old and the whole time I was there was drink beer and shoot cans with a BB gun.

Sophia: Let's go. Let's get this wedding on the road.
Rose: Sophia, why are you in a priest's outfit?
Sophia: Because I'm the one who's gonna marry you.
Rose: But that doesn't make any sense!
Sophia: What the hell do you want from me? It's your dream.

[dream sequence:]
Dorothy: Come on, let's get you married!
Rose: But I'm still not sure!
Dorothy: Rose, you can't disappoint your guests!
Rose: The guests? But I have to think of what's best for me!
Dorothy: That's only in real life, Rose. In a dream, you do what's best for the guests.

[dream sequence:]
Blanche: For Rose, you see, one of your wedding guests is none other than famed psychic Jeanne Dixon!
Jeanne Dixon: Hello, Rose.
Rose: Hello, Miss Dixon!
Jeanne Dixon: Please, call me Jeanne. I know you want to.
Rose: Wow! Jeanne, could you tell me what the future holds?
Jeanne Dixon: Sure! In January, Brooke Shields and Lady Di will star together in a Broadway musical comedy. Senator Edward Kennedy will once again run for-
Rose: No, I mean what the future holds for me and Jonathan.
Jeanne Dixon: Rose, I'm not getting a clear picture on that. I do know that Jackie O will tie the knot again with...
Dorothy: Thank you very much, Miss Dixon. Enjoy the wedding.

[dream sequence:]
Rose: Do you mind? We'd like to talk in private!
Sophia: Why are we in the dream in the first place if she's throwing us out?

Dr. Jonathan Newman: What did you think?
Rose: Oh, it was delicious. I love French food. What was that you had?
Dr. Jonathan Newman: Trout.
Rose: What do they call it in French?
Dr. Jonathan Newman: Le trout.
