Quotes1

  • [the girls' friend and neighbour Renee is worried that her doctor husband spends too long at work and doesn't have much time for her]
  • Blanche Devereaux: Talk to your husband.
  • Renee Corliss: Blanche, at the hospital they call him St. George! I'm married to a saint and I'm gonna tell him to work less, I'm lonely?
  • Sophia Petrillo: Don't you think St. Francis of Assisi's wife had a similar problem? Don't you think she said, "Frank, enough donkeys"?
  • Renee Corliss: So what do I do? Ask George to cut back on his practice because I don't want to eat alone?
  • Rose Nylund: Oh no, don't do that. I couldn't possibly go to another doctor.
  • Renee Corliss: See?
  • Rose Nylund: George is the only man to ever see me naked.
  • Blanche Devereaux: Get outta here.
  • Rose Nylund: Well, except for Charlie, of course.
  • Blanche Devereaux: Get outta here.
  • Rose Nylund: And the vet.
  • Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: The vet?
  • Rose Nylund: Our prize hen Henrietta had some kind of a chicken disease. I don't exactly know what it was.
  • Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: Chickenpox.
  • Rose Nylund: No, I don't think so. Anyway, I had an earache, so he saw us both at the same time.
  • Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: For that you got naked?
  • Rose Nylund: I thought that was strange, too.
