Rose Quote #1161

Quote from Rose in Journey to the Center of Attention

Rose: Oh, girls, we just went to Doug Kirkpatrick's wake. It was the greatest. I can't remember when I had so much fun.
Sophia: Those Irishmen. They even laid out Doug's body in the living room.
Blanche: Oh, that sounds morbid.
Rose: I didn't have a problem with it till one of the relatives got drunk and started slow dancing with the corpse.
But even then it was surprisingly touching.

Quote from Sophia

Rose: Something wrong, Sophia?
Sophia: I don't believe it. My Dorothy is popular. After 60 years of bargaining with God, it's finally happened. Per our agreement, I'm off to Calcutta to work with the poor.

Quote from Blanche

Blanche: That's why I wanted you to come down and see for yourself. Look at that. The men are practically swarming all over her. Just like she was somebody. I just have to keep reminding myself, I am Blanche Devereaux. I am beautiful, men find me desirable, and my life is over.
Rose: Boy, when the mask falls off, it really makes a thud.

Quote from Dorothy

Sophia: Dorothy, how would you like to go to a wake next Friday?
Dorothy: Ma, you know how I feel about those things. They're so sad and depressing. Whose wake is it anyway?
