Sophia Quote #1722
Quote from Sophia in Miles to Go
Miles: Rose, my real name is Nicholas Carbone. I was an accountant in Chicago, and my biggest client was the dead man we saw on the TV news bulletin this evening.
Rose: The Cheeseman?
Miles: Yeah, that's right. Rose, you have to believe me. By the time I found out about it, I was too deeply involved. I was arrested. The feds tried to pin everything on me. You mean- Did they- Have you been to prison?
Miles: Oh, no. I couldn't let that happen. Can you imagine what my life would've been like if the other inmates found out how much I love to dance? No, the D.A. offered me a deal, and I turned state's evidence. Which put my client Mr. Moran away for a long, long time. Do you understand what I'm saying?
Sophia: Yeah, you're a snitch.
Miles: No, I'm not a snitch. I am an informant.
Sophia: Oh, a snitch in a tie.

Quote from Rose
Miles: I mean, it is amazing, isn't it, how with a few carefully chosen words, a poet can convey the immediacy of a specific life experience?
Rose: You don't have to tell me. Remember, I grew up in a small farm town. "Here a quack, there a quack, everywhere a quack, quack."
Quote from Rose
Miles: The point is, it all would have been behind me, but he escaped. The government had to put me in the Witness Protection Program. Gave me a new name, new job, whole new identity.
Rose: I don't know what to say. I can't believe this story you're telling.
Dorothy: But you can believe the story about Henrik Felderstuhl, St. Olaf's half-man, half-grasshopper?
Rose: Dorothy, I'm telling you, when he rubbed his legs together, you'd swear you were on a camping trip.
Quote from Sophia
Rose: It's the 117th anniversary of the birth of Robert Frost.
Sophia: I love him. Always nippin' at your nose.
Rose: That was Jack Frost. Robert Frost is the guy who interviewed Richard Nixon on TV. Who's the dumb one now?
Dorothy: Ah, you're still the reigning champ, Rose. That was David Frost. Robert Frost was a famous American poet.
Sophia: And when I was with him, he was always nippin' at my nose. Some people found it obnoxious. For me, it was a turnon.
