Blanche: I don't want my sister to die. I want her to live. And not just for her, for me. I wanna get to know her like a grownup. Well, I want us to have a chance to be friends, sisters. After all, she's the only family I have.
Rose: I thought you had a sister, Charmaine.
Blanche: Oh, you can't count her! Why, she's an awful, selfish, neurotic woman who made me and Virginia miserable our entire lives.
