Dorothy Quote #857
Quote from Dorothy in Have Yourself a Very Little Christmas
Dorothy: Stan, what are you doing here? What happened with the research and development deal?
Stan: Ah, that was just me trying to get some extra cash to tide me through the holidays.
Dorothy: You were gonna cheat us?
Stan: Oh, sure, if you wanna label everything.
Dorothy: Stan, how could you?
Stan: What did you want me to tell you, Dorothy, that I was broke, that I miscalculated the public taste? I thought I was gonna go through the roof with my plastic reindeer poop.
Dorothy: That's what happens when you aim too high.
Stan: And then I figured, with the drought and the danger of fires, the one novelty item that would really take off this season is a little Santa wearing sunglasses, driving a fire engine. So I put every last cent I had into that hunch, and I ordered 12 gross from my supplier in Germany. Everything is getting out of East Berlin except my fire engines.

‘Have Yourself a Very Little Christmas’ Quotes
Quote from Rose
Rose: I sure miss a traditional St. Olaf Christmas.
Dorothy: Excuse me, Rose, do we have time to run out and get hit by a bus?
Rose: First there'd be the Christmas pageant, with the shepherds and the angels and the two wise men.
Blanche: There were three wise men, Rose.
Rose: Not in St. Olaf. Then we'd all go down to the town square and try to form a circle. And then we'd all go home and smoke kippers.
Blanche: Why, Rose?
Rose: Because it's the best way to get your house to smell like kippers. And then in keeping with the spirit of Christmas, it was traditional to let all the animals sleep inside that night. And then, the next morning, the rumors would start. And they'd continue until New Year's, and we'd all make resolutions that it would never happen again. But then, the next year, all it took was a little eggnog and one wise guy saying, "What the hell! It's Christmas."
Quote from Rose
Reverend Avery: Well, before we open the doors, I just wanna thank you all for taking time away from your own Christmas to provide Christmas for some that are less fortunate. We promise to turn away no one, remembering how Mary and Joseph were turned away at the inn.
Rose: Reverend Avery, it's always puzzled me, why didn't Mary and Joseph call ahead for reservations? Surely they must have realized how impossible it is to get a hotel room during the Christmas season?
Reverend Avery: I guess that's one for the theologians, Rose.
Quote from Sophia
Sophia: It's a nightmare. We've been visited by the yutz of Christmas past.
