Sophia Petrillo
- Blanche Devereaux: Remember Sophia, when you find money, you buy something that you would never buy for yourself.
- Sophia Petrillo: What are you going to buy for yourself, underwear?
- Sophia Petrillo: [an old boyfriend, who was married at the time, reappears in Dorothy's life] Dorothy, you'll be sorry.
- Dorothy: Oh, Ma, come on, we liked each other. He's a funny, warm, giving man. He made me laugh. I am seeing him.
- Sophia Petrillo: All right, go ahead, meet your adulterer. But remember, you were brought up a lady. Keep both your feet on the floor.
- Dorothy: I'd better go change. Blanche, what should I wear?
- Blanche Devereaux: Well, if you're gonna keep both feet on the floor, somethin' you can pull off over your head.
- Rose: Back in St Olaf, there was this shepherd boy who tended his flock on the hill above the town. A wolf kept coming down and stealing his sheep, but the boy never caught him doing it. Because he never saw it happening, he became known around St Olaf as the boy who *didn't* cry "Wolf". Anyway, one day the townspeople heard the boy on the hill yelling, "Wolf, wolf". Well, they all figured, if the boy never cried "Wolf" when the wolf *was* there, if he yelled "Wolf" now, it stood to reason the wolf *wasn't* there.
- Sophia Petrillo: Boy, nothing gets by you people.
- Rose: Damn straight. It was a bear. A huge, ferocious grizzly bear.
- Sophia Petrillo: [impatiently] What happened to the boy?
- Rose: He became known as the boy who cried continuously.
