Quote from Sophia in Rose Fights Back

Sophia: What a day. Look at this. Toothbrushes, 39 cents each. I bought four gross. Anybody in the mood to remove some plaque?
Dorothy: Oh, Ma, you have almost 600 toothbrushes here. People don't use that many in a lifetime, and at your age-
Sophia: Please, I'm way ahead of you. I bought half pink, half blue, so after I'm gone, you and your brother Phil won't fight to see who gets them.
Dorothy: So that's what it feels like to be an heiress.

Quote from Dorothy

Rose: Boy, life sure has a way of throwing you curve balls. When I was younger, I never would have imagined that I'd be worrying about money at this stage of my life.
Dorothy: I used to think Stan would take care of me. I mean, we didn't have much saved, but he was a darn good novelty salesman. Sounds naive now to think that I placed my hopes for the future on a bald pinhead with the morals of a maggot who made his living selling plastic dog-doo. Well, at least I'm not bitter.

Quote from Blanche

Rose: Blanche, did you really start shaving at 11? That seems so young.
Blanche: Oh, I did it on a dare. You know, back where I come from, everybody thought that once you started shaving your legs, why, you'd become loose. So I shaved 'em.
Rose: What happened?
Blanche: Oh, it was an old wives' tale. I didn't become loose for another year and a half.

Quote from Sophia

Sophia: You know, there's an old Italian saying for times like this: "Scappa, tu sei mal fortuna."
Rose: What does that mean?
Sophia: Get away from me, you're bad luck.
