Rose Quote #736

Quote from Rose in Dancing in the Dark

Rose: I'm not going back out there. He'll never miss me.
Dorothy: Of course he'll miss you. Rose, you're the one he came to see.
Rose: But he can talk to you. Why should he care about what I'd have to say? I'm just not smart enough to keep up.
Dorothy: Oh, now, Rose, that is not true.
Rose: It is and you know it. I've never felt like this before. I was one of the smartest people in St. Olaf. I was a fool to think we could have a relationship. Please apologize to him for me. I'd do it, but it would just sound stupid.
