Quote from Sophia in The Operation
Dorothy: I know what she means, Ma. I just don't need to hear it the night before surgery! Sophia: Come on, don't be such a baby! I had my appendix out in a hospital in Sicily. That was rough! Rose: Why? Sophia: They didn't believe in anesthesia back then. They had a nurse hold a pillow over your face so the other patients couldn't hear your screams. You had to pay extra for that. Sicily, love it or leave it.
