Blanche Quote #513

Quote from Blanche in A Visit from Little Sven

Blanche: The point is for the second time in two days I have been thrown over for a younger woman. I can't- I can't compete anymore.
Dorothy: Oh, honey, of course you can.
Rose: Well, you just have to compete in a different way, like, with intelligence and charm.
Blanche: I don't know those ways, Rose, and I'm too old to learn. I'm over the hill, that's all there is to it. [phone rings] I guess I'm just in the same boat as the two of you. [answering phone] Hello? Yes. [giggles] All right. Goodbye. What do you know. Floyd McCallan is taking me sailing today. I guess you two are in the same boat. I'm in the yacht.
Rose: What's this boat she keeps talking about?
Dorothy: Don't worry, Rose. You missed it.

Quote from Dorothy

Blanche: Well, maybe I made a mistake, but I don't think I did anything so terrible.
Rose: Well, I do! There is a sweet, innocent man whose heart is gonna get broken because you decided to use him in one of your petty games.
Blanche: Rose, that's only one side of it. Look at the other side. He did get to kiss me.
Dorothy: Big deal. More people get to kiss you than the Pope's ring.

Quote from Rose

Rose: Oh, good. I got caught up at work and I barely had time to pick up a cake. I wanted to make Sven feel welcome.
Blanche: Rose, that cake is from the "Get it While it's Hot" erotic bake shop.
Dorothy: Whoa!
Blanche: Why, Rose Nylund! Why, that cake is in the shape...
Dorothy: Blanche, we know what it is.
Rose: I thought it was in the shape of Florida.

Quote from Rose

Rose: On Saturday he's flying back to St. Olaf to meet his fiancée.
Blanche: Oh, she went all alone?
Rose: No, he's never met her. It's an arranged marriage. See, little Sven's father, we call him Big Sven, left the old country two years ago and settled in St. Olaf. Then he sent for the rest of his family. First he brought his father over. We call him "Big Sven," too.
Blanche: Well, doesn't that get confusing, having two Big Svens?
Rose: There aren't, Blanche. There's Big Sven and Big Sven II. Like Jaws and Jaws II.
Dorothy: Rose, are any of your relatives named Psycho and Psycho II?
