Rose Quote #528

Quote from Rose in The Days and Nights of Sophia Petrillo

Dorothy: The weather's cleared up. I think we should save a big project like this for a rainy day.
Rose: We agreed we weren't gonna waste time. That'd be a mistake, something we'd regret for the rest of our lives.
Dorothy: Rose, we're eating pizza, not getting tattoos.
Rose: I just hate the idea of wasting time, I always have. Ever since what happened to my neighbor in St.
Olaf.
Blanche: Rose are you about to educate us on the evils of wasting time by telling a long, tedious St. Olaf story?
Rose: D'you know a better way?
Dorothy: She has a point, Blanche.

Quote from Dorothy

Rose: Whatever happened to her?
Dorothy: She colonized life on Venus. Rose, she was 94 when I was six. She died, you idiot.
Rose: How did she die?
Dorothy: You know, we're not sure. One night she left in her wheelchair and she never came back. The next day the neighborhood kids had a go-kart with two really big back wheels.

Quote from Blanche

Rose: It's a shame Sophia has nothing constructive to do anymore. She needs something to make her feel more fulfilled.
Blanche: Well, I'll tell you what would make her feel more fulfilled-
Dorothy & Rose: Blanche!
Blanche: A hobby.
Rose: Oh, I thought you meant, you know, a man.
Blanche: You got a better hobby?

Quote from Sophia

Dorothy: Ma, where you going?
Sophia: To the market.
Rose: Why are you going in the rain?
Sophia: The market's in Miami. If it was in Phoenix, I'd be going in the sun.
Blanche: Now, Sophia, Rose asked a perfectly sensible question.
Sophia: Am I the only one she caught by surprise? Rose, I'm gonna buy a nectarine. I go to the market every day to buy a nectarine. At 82, that's life, a round trip on the number 6 bus to buy a nectarine.
Rose: That's so sad.
Sophia: Not sad. Life. Sad is when you have to mash the nectarine with a fork.
