Favorite Quotes:

* Dorothy: Ma, you’re 81 years old. Your eye sight is weaker and your reflexes are slower.
Sophia: And who are you, Magic Johnson?

* Blanche: That reminds me, I need to give Charlie Milburn a call.
Dorothy: If this cake reminds you of Charlie Milburn we could both give him a call.

* Rose: There aren’t Blanche. There’s Big Sven and Big Sven 2, like Jaws and Jaws 2.

*Blanche: You know I never thought I’d say this but I think Rose got the brains in that family.

* Blanche: Maybe you’re right. An active day out on the town with a handsome young man might take my mind completely off what’s his name.

* Blanche: Dorothy, why is your lipstick all smeared?
Dorothy: I just kissed our driveway.

* Rose: Sure Sophia. How about this? I teach you how to drive and you teach me how to be a great Italian cook?
Sophia: Everybody’s a comedian today.

* Rose: I’m in charge of Sven for one day and he falls for the first little floozy that turns his head.

* Dorothy: Big deal. More people get to kiss you than the Pope’s ring.

* Blanche: I was only blessed with one talent, turning men on. I’ve just never known how to turn them off.

* Rose: Did you have an angry Viking yelling Scandinavian swear words at you on the phone this morning?

* Sophia: If you could never make her happy good luck with the lean mean Swedish machine.
