Sophia Quote #1767
Quote from Sophia in Older and Wiser
Sophia: By the way, what actually does an activities director do?
Mr. Porter: Well, basically you'll pop in the video rental, be a fourth for bridge, a buddy. If you do it well, we'll have trouble telling you from the other residents.
Sophia: I can do that.
Mr. Porter: Good. If you need me, I'll be in my office. Oh, by the way, couple things you should know. This is Mr. Lewis. He won't be any trouble. He's just sort of, uh, quiet. And, uh, that's Smokey. He fancies himself a ladies' man. Sort of the, uh, the rooster of our little henhouse. Whatever you do, don't dance with him. He'll put the moves on anybody.
Sophia: Smokey, I want you to meet my daughter.
Dorothy: Ma!

Quote from Rose
Rose: Well, it wasn't unnatural in St. Olaf. We not only took care of our old people, we revered them, honored them, put them on a pedestal. 'Course, that's how we got to be the broken hip capital of the Midwest.
Quote from Dorothy
Dorothy: I have to go to work, and I don't want you to worry about me. I'm going to say to you what you said to me the very first day you dropped me off at school. "See if you can find someone who looks clean to drive you home."
Quote from Blanche
Dorothy: What's wrong?
Blanche: I will tell you what's wrong. I took Rose here on my shoot today, and they want to use her hands. Imagine. They want to use my face but her hands. Can you believe it? This is the most humiliating thing that's ever happened to me.
Dorothy: Ah, how quickly you forget the 1964 Tokyo Olympics.
Blanche: Big deal. 80,000 people had to wait 20 minutes. The torch eventually got there, didn't it?
