Sophia Quote #1629

Quote from Sophia in How Do You Solve a Problem Like Sophia?

Sophia: Dorothy, I don't get it. I know God wants my life to be meaningful. That's not gonna happen unless I'm here.
Dorothy: Ma, your life is meaningful. You do nothing but help other people. You do Meals On Wheels, Red Cross, volunteer hospital work. The point is, you don't have to be in a convent to make your life meaningful. I mean, Sister Agnes belonged here, but you don't.
Sophia: So who's gonna take Sister Agnes' place?
Dorothy: Nobody can take her place. Just like nobody can take your place.
Sophia: I miss her.
Dorothy: I know. Let's go home.
Sophia: All right. But I'll be missing movie night. But so what? After the tenth time, it isn't the greatest story ever told.
