Quote from Sophia in Golden Moments

Sophia: By the way, I'm moving out tomorrow.
Dorothy: Ma, wait, come back here! What do you mean, you're moving out?
Sophia: Your brother Phil called again. This time, Big Sally left him for good. She packed up the four kids and moved to another trailer court.
Blanche: I thought they had six kids.
Sophia: Yeah, but she had to leave two behind. I think if they cross state lines, it's a parole violation.
Rose: Sophia, you mean you're moving for good?
Sophia: Not for good. I'm just gonna help him raise the kids. I'll be back as soon as they graduate from high school. Let's see. They're 14 now. That should be about ten, twelve years.
