Quote from Rose in Family Affair
Dorothy: Are you suggesting that Michael and Bridget go out together? Blanche: That is exactly what I'm suggesting. Rose: Oh, I don't think so, Blanche. I learned a long time ago to stay out of my children's social lives. Dorothy: Yeah, I'm afraid I agree with Rose. Rose: It's like that old Scandinavian saying, "You can lead a herring to water but you have to walk really fast or he'll die."
