Blanche Quote #644

Quote from Blanche in Brother, Can You Spare That Jacket?

Blanche: What are you staring at?
Kenny: Your purse.
Blanche: You just be careful, son. There is a long list of men who bear the scars of trying the wrong thing at the wrong time with me. Scars, I might add, that are not visible to the general public.
Kenny: I thought you might have a piece of gum.
Blanche: Oh. Well, I might. You want me to take a look?
Kenny: Forget it.
Blanche: Listen, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap at you like that. I'm just a little uncomfortable here.
Kenny: Helps if you stuff newspapers under the mattress.
Blanche: That's not what I meant. I was talking about being here at the shelter.
Kenny: This is your first time?
Blanche: Oh, lord, it's been ages since I heard that from a man. Yes, it is my first time.
Kenny: I can give you a few pointers if you like.
Blanche: Now, that I've never heard before.

Quote from Sophia

Dorothy: Who's the letter from, Ma?
Sophia: Joanne Pescatore. She's coming to Miami for a visit.
Dorothy: Joanne Pescatore? Didn't she own that little candy store down the street from us in Brooklyn?
Sophia: That was Jeanette Passadano.
Dorothy: Oh. Then who was Joanne Pescatore?
Sophia: How the hell should I know? This letter's for Rose.
Dorothy: Ma, why are you reading Rose's mail?
Sophia: Because all you got were bills. Listen to this at the end. Tell me if you think Joanne's a lesbian.

Quote from Sophia

Sophia: Boy, we had some great times at the home, didn't we, Ida?
Ida: We sure did.
Sophia: Dorothy, Ida was the best bar none at faking an angina attack at dinner so we could swap our nonfat yogurt for real sour cream. There wasn't a patient at Shady Pines that didn't bless Ida every time we sat down to eat a baked potato.

Quote from Sophia

Blanche: How does this go again? To win something, you have to get three to match?
Rose: Right. If you get three coconuts, you win $100.
Dorothy: What if you get three palm trees?
Sophia: You don't have three palm trees. That means you win $10,000.
Dorothy: Ma, I know what a palm tree looks like.
Sophia: You also know what a handsome doctor looks like. It doesn't mean you've got one.
