Rose Quote #716
Quote from Rose in Rose Fights Back
Rose: Well, I just feel overwhelmed. How could this have happened? Charlie and I were so careful with our money. We saved. We never splurged. OK, one year, we went to Chicago to tour the stockyards. But it was our 20th anniversary. We had a romantic trip coming.
Dorothy: You must have been the envy of every woman in St. Olaf.
Rose: Oh, it was more than the stockyards. We even got to see where Crisco is made. The point is, we thought I'd have enough money for the rest of my life, as long as I had his pension. Now the reality is I probably have enough for only a couple of months.

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.
