Blanche Quote #904
Quote from Blanche in An Illegitimate Concern
Rose: Blanche, I thought you were in bed.
Blanche: Oh, I couldn't sleep. It must be from living with old people. I've been going through my diaries. Just listen to this. "March 3, 1967. George just back from Dallas. Surprised me with the most beautiful diamond earrings. I love him so much it takes my breath away. Ours is a love so pure, so complete, it'll outlast time itself.
I'll have the earrings appraised next week." See? That proves it.
Dorothy: Am I missing something?
Rose: Proves what?
Blanche: Dallas. Diamond earrings. George was obviously feeling guilty about cheating on me with David's mother. David was telling the truth.

Quote from Sophia
Sophia: Please, Dorothy. If we win this thing, I can die a happy woman.
Dorothy: Ma, I refuse to be a part of your neurotic need to be number one. Now, just let it go.
Sophia: How many challenges do I have left in life? Seeing if I can get more than halfway across the street before the "Don't Walk" sign comes on. Trying to stay awake on the john. Hoping it is the john. Competition is the thing that keeps me going. But, if you want me to let it go.
Quote from Rose
Dorothy: Oh, now, that is really odd. I mean, if he's selling encyclopedias, why didn't he try to sell us a set?
Rose: And you know what else is so strange about it? He didn't bring them in.
Blanche: Rose. No encyclopedia salesman lugs around 26 volumes door-to-door.
Rose: Are you kidding? In St. Olaf they carry 52.
Blanche: Why?
Rose: Balance.
Dorothy: Rose, why don't they just carry 13 in each hand?
Rose: Excuse me. I have to make a phone call.
