Blanche Quote #289
Quote from Blanche in Joust Between Friends
Dorothy: I'm sorry, Blanche, you can't.
Blanche: Why?
Dorothy: Because.
Blanche: Why?
Dorothy: Because.
Blanche: Why?
Dorothy: Because it's none of your business.
Blanche: None of my business? I will have you know that before you came to work here, honey, everything was my business. Now, show me that paper.
Dorothy: I'm sorry, Blanche, I can't.
Blanche: I knew you'd been hiding something. You no-good, back-stabbing jezebel. I demand you show me that paper.
Dorothy: I'm sorry, flattery won't work.
Blanche: I'll tell you what won't work, honey. That's you and me here in the same office. Stealing that banquet from me was bad enough, but when you start hiding things from me you have gone too far. If you want this job that bad that you have to lie and cheat and sneak around, then you can have it. I quit.

Quote from Blanche
Dorothy: Oh, you couldn't sleep either, huh?
Blanche: No, I guess it's the knife in my back.
Dorothy: Come again?
Blanche: I wasn't going to say anything about this, Dorothy, but I won't be able to sleep until I do. I feel that you have backed me into a corner. And when I am backed into a corner, I come out fighting like a wild cat. Unless I've had too much to drink, in which case I slide down the wall and make mad, passionate love on the carpet.
Quote from Sophia
Rose: I know I promised to take him back to the pound yesterday, but he wasn't feeling well. Frankly, Dorothy, I'm a little worried.
Sophia: Don't be, it was a hangover.
Rose: What?
Sophia: A hangover from the sherry.
Dorothy: Ma, you gave the dog sherry? That's terrible.
Sophia: I was having a few sips while I was rinsing out my underwear. It's a little thing I do Mondays and Thursdays only. Anyway, the dog walks in, looks up at me, and I swear it's your Uncle Aldo's face begging me for a drink. So I give the mutt a swallow, but he doesn't know when to stop, also like your Uncle Aldo. So we sing a little Puccini, stretch out on the couch and take a nap together. All in all, a pleasant afternoon.
Quote from Sophia
Rose: [as dog] Bye, Auntie Blanche. Bye, Auntie Sophia.
Sophia: I don't know how she gets away with it. If she was my age she'd be locked up at Shady Pines making boats out of popsicle sticks.
