Quote from Blanche in Clinton Avenue Memoirs
Blanche: [on the phone] Oh, hello, sir. I am conducting a phone survey regarding healthcare for the elderly. May I ask your age? Well, that's not so old! And what's your general health? That's good. What would you say is your annual income? Oh, that's very good! Marital status? Oh, I am sorry. How long? Three weeks! I'd say it was time you were getting on with your life, honey. Rose: Thank you very much. Blanche, marital status is not a question on the survey. Blanche: Well, I'm sorry, Rose, but I ask a man 20 questions, you can bet your life one of 'em's gonna be, "Are you married?"
