Dorothy Quote #120
Quote from Dorothy in That Was No Lady
Glen: Sweetheart, if you want to grab some dinner, we'll have to take separate cars. I'm gonna have to leave for home right from the restaurant.
Dorothy: Glen, forget dinner. We need to talk. Things aren't working out anymore and I don't know what to do to make them any better. You can't leave your wife and I'm not cut out to be the other woman.
Glen: Dorothy, you know I love you.
Dorothy: I know that. But it's not enough.
Glen: I don't want to lose you.
Dorothy: I don't want to lose you either. That's why I came back.
Glen: I thought you understood. I can't break up my marriage! Not now, not at this stage of my life. If things didn't work out between you and me, I'd be alone. That kind of risk is fine when you're 40, but I couldn't do it today. I'm too old for that, Dorothy.
Dorothy: Glen, the risk shouldn't scare you at any age. And at any age, the loving would make it worthwhile. You- You want a safe, easy, comfortable home life and a romance and excitement on the side and it's not for me.
Glen: Dorothy, please think about what you're throwing away.
Dorothy: If I stay, I am throwing away my future. Now I'll go home. I'll hurt. But after awhile, I'll feel better and I'll go on with my life. If I continue this, I'll end up alone. And I care too much about myself to let that happen.
Glen: Dorothy, I love you.
Dorothy: I love you too. Goodbye.

Quote from Sophia
Dorothy: I cannot believe how excited I am! I mean, he's practically a stranger, and I am crazy about him! I haven't felt this way about a man ever before.
Blanche: Oh, honey, you've been hit by the thunderbolt! Love at first sight! It happened to me once.
Sophia: Once? You've been hit by more lightning than the World Trade Center!
Rose: I was hit by the thunderbolt once.
Sophia: Probably a direct hit to the forehead.
Quote from Rose
Rose: It was the first time I saw my Charlie. I was seven and he was eight. It was a hot Minnesota summer and he had put up one of those little stands on the sidewalk.
Blanche: Selling lemonade.
Rose: Insurance. And I bought a nickel policy on my red wagon. And right after that, my wagon was destroyed.
Blanche: How?
Rose: Some hogs trampled it. I was hauling home a smoked ham for Mama and I think it set them off. Anyway, that's when I fell in love with Charlie. He paid for a new wagon, even though my policy didn't cover acts of swine.
Dorothy: ... "Acts of swine."
Quote from Sophia
Blanche: Girls, I am so excited! I am finally going to do something you've heard me talk about doing for years.
