Rose Quote #763

Quote from Rose in All That Jazz

Rose: Enrique since I've been working here I can't move my head anymore, my back hurts, I can't sleep, I have trouble digesting food, I see spots before my eyes. I'm not a doctor, but I think it could be stress.
Enrique Mas: Please. This sounds very important. We should discuss this over coffee.
Rose: Cream and sugar?
Enrique Mas: And a treat. Surprise me.
Rose: You see, that's part of it. I mean, I can't possibly handle all the things you give me to do. Oh, I feel like such a failure. Here you've trusted me with a really important job, and I'm just not doing it.
Enrique Mas: I know how hard your job is, and how good you are at it. Until you started working for me, my neck was like that.
Rose: Well, no wonder I'm cracking.
Enrique Mas: I don't want you to crack, Rose. I need you. Do you believe that?
Rose: Yes.
Enrique Mas: [to make-up artist] Enough 34. Really, Rose, speaking from the heart and not from the makeup, you're the best. That's why I work you like a dog. Out of respect.
Rose: Thank you.
Enrique Mas: But I don't want to kill you. So I'm going to hire an assistant for you, Rose.
Rose: An assistant for me? I can't believe it!
Enrique Mas: You can't? I must be fading. More 34. Rose, first thing tomorrow you get your assistant.

Quote from Rose

Rose: The hardest part for me was explaining to my Kirsten the difference between boys and girls. I knew the time had come, but I kept putting it off. Finally, I decided it was time to take the bull by the horns.
Blanche: So you told her?
Rose: No, I took the bull by the horns, turned him around and showed her what makes a bull a bull.
Dorothy: You are kidding, Rose?
Rose: No! That's how my mother taught me.
Blanche: Honey, didn't that give you a false impression about what a man would look like?
Rose: It sure did. Can you imagine my surprise on my wedding night with Charlie? [laughing] Boy, that bull would have been jealous.

Quote from Blanche

Dorothy: For the past week all he's been doing is hanging out at the beach and having a good time. Maybe this job at the Hacienda Hut will get him on the right track again.
Blanche: Dorothy, you don't want Michael working in a place like the Hacienda Hut. It is full of people just looking for easy sex and cheap thrills. But if it'll help, I could write a letter of recommendation.

Quote from Rose

Rose: Dorothy, I know you've done the right thing. In the animal kingdom, the whole idea is to teach offspring to fend for themselves. Humans are the only ones who think it's their duty to care for children their entire lives.
Dorothy: You know, Rose, sometimes you really say some wise things.
Rose: We're also the only species who use corn holders that look like corn on the cob when we eat corn on the cob.
Dorothy: Oops! Spoke too soon.
