Quote from Rose in Nothing to Fear But Fear Itself
Rose: My Aunt Gretchen in Fort Lauderdale died. Dorothy: Oh, Rose. Blanche: Honey, I'm sorry. Were you close to Aunt Gretchen? Rose: No, I couldn't stand her. Dorothy: Wait a minute, Rose. Honey, if you didn't like your aunt, why are you so upset? Rose: Because I'll have to speak at her funeral. I'm terrified of speaking in front of people. It's my biggest fear in the world. Blanche: Well, why can't somebody else speak? Rose: Generptionloken. It's a family tradition. It means the oldest niece has to give the eulogy. Well, not literally. Literally, it's a herring poacher you can wear as a sun visor. The family got together and they decided that was close enough. Dorothy: Rose, I take it that no member of your family was ever a returning champion on Jeopardy.
