Rose Quote #570

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

Ben: Are you gonna tie a bow in that when you've finished wrapping it up?
Rose: I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you. I'm a bit compulsive. It's the Minnesota farm girl in me.
Ben: You're from Minnesota?
Rose: Yes.
Ben: No kidding? So am I.
Rose: Well, what a coincidence. Isn't that amazing? St. Olaf.
Ben: Ben Wheaton. Pleased to meet you.
Rose: Oh, no, my name is Rose Nylund. I come from St. Olaf.
Ben: Oh, I should've known that you weren't a saint. It's too much to expect a miracle this late in the game.

Quote from Sophia

Dorothy: Who's the letter from, Ma?
Sophia: Joanne Pescatore. She's coming to Miami for a visit.

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?

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?

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.
