Dorothy Quote #522

Quote from Dorothy in The Artist

Laszlo: You see, in this statue, I wanted a look of strength and character. So I chose Dorothy.
Dorothy: I knew it. I knew it.
Laszlo: Then I dropped her.
Sophia: Like so many before you.
Laszlo: I decided I needed more sensuality and vitality. So I turned to my sketches of Blanche.
Blanche: I knew it. Then I put them away.
Laszlo: I wanted more softness, more sweetness. So I went to my sketches of Rose.
Rose: You mean that's me up there?
Laszlo: No.
Dorothy: Well then who is it?
Laszlo: It is all of you. The answer finally came to me. Why not take the best features of each lady to create one perfect lady? That is what you see. It is not hard to understand why you are such good friends. You complement each other very well indeed.

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?
