Blanche Quote #541

Quote from Blanche in The Artist

Blanche: Yeah, I could use some of that. I think I might be coming down with a cold.
Dorothy: Well, it doesn't come as a surprise. You've spent every afternoon this week standing stark naked in a cold, windy studio.
Blanche: Oh, I didn't catch cold at Laszlo's studio, Dorothy. Laszlo keeps me too warm for that. Too warm and too tingly. Too warm and too tingly and too hot.
Dorothy: Well, have some juice anyway, Blanche. I'd feel better.
Blanche: [starting to take a sip] Not that we actually do anything. In the studio. Laszlo's been a perfect gentleman so far. [holding the cup to her mouth again] I just stand there in front of him in all my luscious nakedness, and somehow he manages to suppress the urge to throw me on the floor and ravage me.
Sophia: Please, if he throws you on the floor, you'll both end up in the apartment below.
Dorothy: Drink up, Blanche. [doorbell rings]
Blanche: That must be him now. I just have to get my jacket. We're driving into the museum together. [drinks juice with no problem] Coming, Laszlo.
[Dorothy takes a slip from glass and it once again dribbles all down her top]

Quote from Sophia

Dorothy: Ma, you don't have any clothes on.
Sophia: Tell me about it. I just walked ten blocks. I got a belly button full of tweed.
Dorothy: Ma, what the hell happened?
Sophia: In the middle of bingo, Murray Hazeltine sits down. He's the big practical joker at the center. Believe me, Howie Mandel is funnier. Anyway, he tells me to sniff his carnation for good luck. I take one whiff, and bingo.
Dorothy: He squirted your dress with ink.
Sophia: Actually, it was Del Monte prune juice. It's free at the center. It's a come-on. They make their real money on the powdered toilet seat rentals.
Dorothy: So what happened to your clothes?
Sophia: Murray took them to have them cleaned. Dorothy, I still can't believe it happened. I've never been so humiliated.
Dorothy: Ma, honey, there's no reason for you to be embarrassed. He plays tricks on everybody.
Sophia: I'm talking about on my way home. My belt came loose in front of a construction site. Nobody whistled, and two guys went home sick.

Quote from Sophia

Dorothy: Ma, why don't you sit right over here and read your magazine, okay?
Sophia: Oh. Okay. [sits down without a sound] Don't try to outsmart me, Dorothy. I got the mind of a fox and the butt muscles of Baryshnikov.

Quote from Rose

Rose: Sophia, what are you doing with that heavy coat on inside the house?
Sophia: You tell me, Rose.
Dorothy: Ma!
Rose: Dorothy, was Sophia naked just now, or does her dress really need ironing?
