Blanche: So you intend to limp around in pain when you could be completely cured in just one night? Dorothy, that doesn't make sense!
Dorothy: It makes sense to me. I don't like doctors, I don't like hospitals.
Rose: Nobody likes hospitals, but there's nothing to be scared of.
Dorothy: Oh, really, Rose? What about blood? What about death? What about those nighties that don't close up in the back?
Rose: Well, anybody can make it sound unpleasant.
Blanche: Dorothy, you are being irrational. Now the bottom line is we're talking about your health. That is a very precious thing. The longer you put this surgery off, the more you may be risking your health. I just don't think that's a risk worth taking, do you?
Dorothy: Yes.
