Sophia Quote #1868

Quote from Sophia in Hey, Look Me Over

Dorothy: Well, I picked up this pamphlet on the four warning signs of hearing loss. I think Ma may be having a problem.
Blanche: Sophia?
Dorothy: Warning sign number one, avoidance of social activities. Number two, people who can't hear act forgetful. Ma forgot about these tickets.
Blanche: Oh, that was just an excuse. Sophia's not really getting forgetful.
Sophia: [holding an empty tray] Hot coffee! Coming through! Number three, they act cranky.
Sophia: Ah, the hell with you. Get your own coffee.
Dorothy: Number four, they usually laugh out of context.
Sophia: [laughing]
Rose: What are you laughing at?
Sophia: I'm sorry. I thought you said, "My dog has no nose. Well, how does he smell? Awful." "Awful." Nothing, huh? Well, I laughed when I thought you said it.

Rose: Right there, it does.
Blanche: Oh, silly, those are my initials. Blanche Elizabeth Devereaux.
Dorothy: Your initials spell "Bed"?

Quote from Sophia

Sophia: Well, I've got two tickets here for the final night of the Philharmonic, and one of them has your name on it. Here you go, Opus.
Dorothy: I thought you two went last night.
Sophia: I traded those for these. Actually, last night we went to see Dying Young. Terrific. I laughed till I peed. And then I laughed at that.

Quote from Dorothy

Blanche: Hey! Anyway, Dorothy, these new hearing aids just fit right in the ear canal. Nobody can even see 'em, so what does it matter?
Dorothy: It matters because it's a step I don't want to take. Look, I don't mind being divorced or having to struggle to pay my bills or having to eat my weight in supplements every morning, but I will not do this. I will not become an old person. [holding her shoulder] Ooh, rain's coming.
