Quote from Sophia in Accurate Conception

Dorothy: Ma, why are you still here? You were supposed to have your checkup with Dr. Siegel this morning.
Sophia: Oh, you didn't hear about Dr. Siegel.
Dorothy: Hear what?
Sophia: I'm not going.
Dorothy: Ma, you are impossible. Now, this is the third appointment you've missed.
Sophia: At my age, checkups can be dangerous to your health. You know Sam down the block, the one who thinks he's hiding his stomach by wearing Hawaiian shirts?
Dorothy: Yeah, Sam is fine.
Sophia: His brother went for a checkup seven years ago. The doctor said he was great. Three days after the exam, he was dead.
Dorothy: Ma, he owed money to a guy named Face and got thrown off a pier.
Sophia: That was one of the causes.

Rose: I can relate to the festivities part, Sophia. All our children were conceived on special St. Olaf holidays. Adam was conceived on the Day of the Princess Pig when they had the pig crowning, and Jeanella was conceived on Hay Day. That's the day we St. Olafians celebrate hay.
Dorothy: Rose, do you think you could wrap this up before Rebecca goes into labor?
Rose: Then there was the Day of the Wheat when everybody came to town dressed as sandwiches. Charlie and I forgot to put cheese between us and before I knew it, there was Kirsten.

Dorothy: Ah, there you are. Ma, I scheduled the appointment for your checkup. Ma, you know you have to have a physical. What do you want me to do? Take you to court? Have you declared incompetent?
