Sophia Quote #1269
Quote from Sophia in Rose Fights Back
Dorothy: Now, Ma, what is going on?
Sophia: I don't know. It makes me feel good. In a strange way, shopping there makes you feel immortal.
Dorothy: I don't follow.
Sophia: Let's say you buy 20 cases of sardines.
Dorothy: This better be just an example.
Sophia: Of course. You get 20 cases of sardines, you figure: "God doesn't want me to waste good sardines. He's gonna wait till I finish the 20 cases." That could take five, six years.
Dorothy: Yeah, well, why couldn't you just eat one case slowly?
Sophia: Silly, isn't it?
Blanche: What in the hell are all those sardines doing in the kitchen?
Dorothy: Oh, Ma!
Sophia: Wait till you're my age. We'll see what kind of straws you clutch at.

‘Rose Fights Back’ Quotes
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.
