Dorothy Quote #1199
Quote from Dorothy in The Monkey Show
Dorothy: Anyway, Dr. Halperin is really working wonders with Stan. You know, he's gotten him to transfer his love for me to a fake monkey.
Blanche: What are you talkin' about?
Dorothy: Well, it really is very simple. You see, studies show that when baby monkeys are taken away from their mothers, they can transfer their love to fake mothers. And the same thing is happening with Stan. I mean, he's weaning himself from his relationship with me by using a fake monkey for companionship.
Blanche: Why not use a fake woman?
Dorothy: Oh, well, honey, that's why Stan went to the psychiatrist in the first place.

Quote from Sophia
Dorothy: Ma, what are you doing?
Sophia: Filling sandbags, Dorothy. There's a hurricane a-coming.
Dorothy: "A-coming"?
Sophia: That's right. People only use the "A" when a really big storm is a-coming or a-brewing. So grab a sack and start a-shoveling.
Quote from Rose
Blanche: Oh, you're back from your session early. Was it as cathartic as you thought?
Dorothy: Well, I don't know if "cathartic" is the word.
Rose: You should do what I do. I find if I repeat a word that's confused me, I look smarter than I really am. Like, "Was it cathartic?" "Oh, I've had a catharticism." "Of course, I'm not the type to kiss and cathartirize."
Quote from Sophia
Dorothy: Ma, the weather report said nothing about a hurricane.
Sophia: Ida Pearlberg down at the senior center woke up this morning with a leg cramp. Need I say more?
Dorothy: Yes.
Sophia: Dorothy, when you get around my age, two things happen. One, you get more intuitive about the weather. And two, corn becomes your enemy.
