Blanche: Oh, that man is slime.
Dorothy: Pond scum.
Rose: Flugenachen.
Dorothy: What?
Rose: Flugenachen. It's Scandinavian for someone who docks his boat in a handicapped slip.

Dorothy: Rose, why don't we just show Mr. Vaughn around the theatre?
Blanche: Well, why don't I do that myself because I've had the most experience performing here.
Dorothy: Blanche, the parking lot doesn't count.

Blanche: And we just want you to know how excited we are that an artist of your stature is going to be performing in our little theatre.
Patrick Vaughn: Ladies, there are no small theatres, no small parts, only small actors.
Rose: Like Herve Villechaize.
Patrick Vaughn: I was speaking metaphorically.
Rose: Oh, please go on. That's such a beautiful language.
