Dorothy Quote #147

Quote from Dorothy in The Operation

Dorothy: Look, I couldn't help it! When the doctor came in with the release form, he told me what could possibly go wrong. I just panicked.
Blanche: Darling, nothing is going to go wrong.
Rose: Blanche is right. 'Course, one summer when I was a candy striper, you wouldn't believe the things I saw. Lost patients, mixed-up medications, botched operations-
Dorothy: Rose, do a big ugly man with a limp a favor and shut up.

Quote from Rose

Rose: Hey, we've all got our sad stories.
Blanche: What?
Rose: Look, Blanche, we've practiced for six weeks. We've paid for our costumes, we told everybody we'd be there! You're not gonna wimp out on me. You're gonna go to that recital. If you end up in a puddle tonight, well, you'd just better break into "Singin' in the Rain"!

Quote from Blanche

Blanche: Rose, I have a confession to make. Flying isn't the only thing I'm afraid of. I also have a fear of performing. In front of groups, that is.

Quote from Sophia

Dorothy: I know what she means, Ma. I just don't need to hear it the night before surgery!
Sophia: Come on, don't be such a baby! I had my appendix out in a hospital in Sicily. That was rough!
Rose: Why?
Sophia: They didn't believe in anesthesia back then. They had a nurse hold a pillow over your face so the other patients couldn't hear your screams. You had to pay extra for that. Sicily, love it or leave it.
