Quote from Sophia in Brother, Can You Spare That Jacket?

Dorothy: I am positive you left it on the couch.
Blanche: We gotta find that jacket. This is driving me crazy.
Sophia: All right. I wasn't gonna say anything, but since it's kinda my fault, I'll pay for a new jacket out of my share.
Blanche: What do you mean it's your fault?
Rose: Do you know where the jacket is, Sophia?
Dorothy: What did you do with it, Ma?
Sophia: Stand back. [holding a vase] I know how to use this thing.
Dorothy: Spill it, Ma.
Sophia: [empties the vase on the floor] I'm scared. I'll do anything you say.

Quote from Sophia

Dorothy: Who's the letter from, Ma?
Sophia: Joanne Pescatore. She's coming to Miami for a visit.
Dorothy: Joanne Pescatore? Didn't she own that little candy store down the street from us in Brooklyn?
Sophia: That was Jeanette Passadano.
Dorothy: Oh. Then who was Joanne Pescatore?
Sophia: How the hell should I know? This letter's for Rose.
Dorothy: Ma, why are you reading Rose's mail?
Sophia: Because all you got were bills. Listen to this at the end. Tell me if you think Joanne's a lesbian.

Quote from Sophia

Sophia: Boy, we had some great times at the home, didn't we, Ida?
Ida: We sure did.
Sophia: Dorothy, Ida was the best bar none at faking an angina attack at dinner so we could swap our nonfat yogurt for real sour cream. There wasn't a patient at Shady Pines that didn't bless Ida every time we sat down to eat a baked potato.

Quote from Sophia

Blanche: How does this go again? To win something, you have to get three to match?
Rose: Right. If you get three coconuts, you win $100.
Dorothy: What if you get three palm trees?
Sophia: You don't have three palm trees. That means you win $10,000.
Dorothy: Ma, I know what a palm tree looks like.
Sophia: You also know what a handsome doctor looks like. It doesn't mean you've got one.
