Blanche Quote #2

Quote from Blanche in The Engagement

Blanche: Oh, Rose, I'm borrowing your earrings. Lord, I'd love to get a face-lift by 8:00.
Dorothy: Blanche, who is Harry?
Blanche: Oh, girls, he's just wonderful. He's very gallant, he's a perfect gentleman, he's a great dancer. And he doesn't make noises when he chews.
Dorothy: Chewing, that's way up there on my list. Comes right after intelligent.
Blanche: He doesn't talk loud at the movies, doesn't take his own pulse, and he's still interested.
Rose: In what?
Dorothy: Rose, if you have to ask, it does not matter anymore.

Quote from Sophia

Rose: I don't drink before bedtime. I stop all liquids at noon and I still wake up.
Sophia: I never have that problem. Never. I sleep like a log. I never get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. I go in the morning. Every morning like clockwork, at 7 am I pee. Unfortunately, I don't wake up till 8.

Quote from Dorothy

Dorothy: Tell me, how is Blanche?
Rose: She didn't go to work again today. It's been three weeks and she just sits in her room. The museum's gonna fire her.
Dorothy: Well, we've tried everything: golf, the movies, theater tickets. She wouldn't even budge for Julio Iglesias.
Rose: I know grief. It takes time.
Dorothy: Please, Rose. Listen, if you're Irish, you have a wake. You eat, you cry, you drink, you vomit, and you're done. If you're Jewish, you cry, you sit, you eat for seven days, you put on ten pounds, and it's over. We Italians scream, dress up a donkey, hire a band, and that's that. It's these southern Protestants who make it a way of life.

Quote from Sophia
