Quotes4

  • Flora 'Sissy' Goforth: Did somebody tell you I was dying this summer? Did somebody tip you off that Sissy Goforth was about to go forth this summer?
  • Chris Flanders: Yes. That's why I came.
  • Flora 'Sissy' Goforth: Well, well. I've escorted six husbands to the eternal threshold and come back alone without them. Now it's my turn. I've no choice but to do it, but I want to do it alone. I don't want to be escorted. I want to go forth alone. And you... you counted on touching my heart because you knew I was dying. Well, you miscalculated with this one. The milk train doesn't stop here anymore.
  • Chris Flanders: Boom! The shock of each moment of still being alive.
  • Chris Flanders: In Xanadu did Kubla Khan, a stately pleasure-dome decree. Where Alph, the sacred river, ran through caverns measureless to man down to a sunless sea.
  • Flora 'Sissy' Goforth: WhaaAAAT?
  • Journalist: How did you get aboard?
  • Chris Flanders: I just missed the boat she sent for me.
  • Journalist: You know Goforth?
  • Chris Flanders: [nods and chuckles]
  • Journalist: If you're a friend of Goforth's, you can pay your passage by getting her to see us. They say she's a bitch to approach. How well do you know her?
  • Chris Flanders: Well it's been some time since I've seen her, but. Well actually I... actually I know her quite well.
  • Journalist: Off. Off.
