Blanche Quote #622
Quote from Blanche in The One That Got Away
Blanche: Well, I can give you something to talk about - my date tonight. Which turned out to be the most humiliating evening I've ever spent.
Sophia: So, what are we talking about?
Rose: Blanche's date.
Blanche: He turned me down, again. I'm just devastated.
Dorothy: Oh, come on now, Blanche, you said yourself you didn't find him that attractive anymore.
Blanche: That's not the point. The point is, to Blanche Devereaux, sexuality and attractiveness are very important. They are Blanche Devereaux. It just tortures me to know that there's one man out there, one on the face of God's green earth, that I cannot have. Especially if he's fat and bald!

Quote from Sophia
Sophia: I wouldn't be so sure if I were Blanche. Sometimes these things aren't meant to be. Like me and Fabrizio Ribeno. We were on the verge of a passionate love affair when Destiny intervened.
Dorothy: Don't tell me. His wife, Destiny Ribeno?
Sophia: Right. Boy, did she have a temper. She dragged him away by the hair on his back, smashed his skull with a ravioli crank, and threw his limp body in the river. That's a Sicily you don't see on postcards.
Quote from Sophia
Dorothy: You know, sometimes people can lose their looks.
Sophia: Not in Sicily. In Sicily, if you're born beautiful, you stay beautiful. The whole town sees to it. They check up on you, they encourage you, they never let you slip. That's why we were so happy when Dorothy was born.
Dorothy: Oh, Ma.
Sophia: Who needed all those people bothering us all the time!
Quote from Rose
Rose: You know something, Dorothy? You don't have to tell me this if you don't want to, but underneath it all you believe in them, don't you? You did from the very beginning. Oh, I'm glad. It's more fun. It's like with Santa Claus. The best Christmas we ever had was when all eight of my brothers and sisters, from Lily to Michael, all still believed. That must be ten years ago now.
