Sophia Quote #1581
Quote from Sophia in Wham, Bam, Thank You, Mammy!
Sophia: Dorothy, can we talk? I just want you to understand why I did what I did. Pussycat, I realize I was wrong by not talking to you before hiring a matchmaker, but what you don't understand is where I come from, matchmaking is an age-old tradition. For centuries, people have been happy being brought together by a third party.
Dorothy: Ma, I understand. I-I really appreciate what you're trying to do.
Sophia: Good. And in keeping with that spirit, I sold you to the sultan of Fatah.
Dorothy: Ma.
Sophia: What? You're a substitute teacher. It'll be just like The King and I.

Quote from Blanche
Blanche: I don't know what to think. This changes everything I ever thought about Big Daddy. I always assumed that he and Mama had a wonderful sex life. I walked in on 'em once when I was a little girl. There was all this huffin' and puffin' and high-pitched sounds. Then suddenly Big Daddy shouted "Glory!" and they both lit up cigarettes. I vowed then and there I would never do anything so repulsive.
Rose: So what happened?
Blanche: Oh, Bobby Joe Porter explained to me that the cigarette part was optional.
Quote from Rose
Rose: You know, I had a nanny when I was a child. She was my best friend. I could tell her anything, and I'd know she'd keep it a secret. Oh, we used to spend the days running and playing in the meadow. Or playing hide-and-seek in the barn. My nanny treated me just like I was her own kid. Excuse me. [exits]
Dorothy: Is there anyone here who doesn't think she was talking about a goat?
Quote from Dorothy
Dorothy: We're not talking. I'm still furious with Ma for hooking me up with that matchmaker.
Rose: That reminds me of a story about St. Olaf's most famous matchmaker.
Dorothy: Oh, please, Rose, spare me the endless inane details of how Heidi Flugendugelgurgenplotz successfully matched a bull with a duck. And how their daughter was a bull duck who ran a small tattoo parlor in Carmel.
