Blanche Quote #1292
Quote from Blanche in Journey to the Center of Attention
Blanche: All right, the truth is, I'm jealous of you. Oh, God, that leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Dorothy: Blanche, what are you talking about?
Blanche: Dorothy, the one thing in my life I've always been assured of is being the center of attention. Oh, I knew I never had to worry about competing with any other woman 'cause I'd always win. But when I saw you sing the other night, I realized why all those men were practically fallin' all over themselves to get to you. Because, Dorothy, when you sing, you light up the room. You do. You positively glow. You're just- You're beautiful.
Dorothy: Oh, Blanche, you don't have to say that.
Blanche: Well, believe me, I don't like sayin' it. But it's true. You can attract men in a way I can't and I'm jealous of you.
Dorothy: Blanche Devereaux, that is the nicest thing that you have ever said to me.
Blanche: It is?
Dorothy: Absolutely.
Blanche: Yeah, you're probably right. Most of the time when I compliment you, I'm not being sincere. But I really meant that last one, I swear.

Quote from Sophia
Rose: Something wrong, Sophia?
Sophia: I don't believe it. My Dorothy is popular. After 60 years of bargaining with God, it's finally happened. Per our agreement, I'm off to Calcutta to work with the poor.
Quote from Blanche
Blanche: That's why I wanted you to come down and see for yourself. Look at that. The men are practically swarming all over her. Just like she was somebody. I just have to keep reminding myself, I am Blanche Devereaux. I am beautiful, men find me desirable, and my life is over.
Rose: Boy, when the mask falls off, it really makes a thud.
Quote from Dorothy
