Dorothy Quote #1304

Quote from Dorothy in Journey to the Center of Attention

Sophia: At Doug's wake, people got up and said wonderful things about him. But he wasn't there to hear it. I don't want that to happen to me. I want to hear how people feel about me. I want to be there to listen as they salute my... my grace, my wit, my inner beauty.
Dorothy: Ma, writers cost money.

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

Rose: Boy, when the mask falls off, it really makes a thud.
