Quotes 

• Blanche : I can't eat anything with eyes.

  Rose Nylund : I can't eat anything that moves.

  Dorothy : Like what, Rose, horses?

  Rose Nylund : Like oysters.

  Coco : Oysters don't move.

  Dorothy : Coco they could dance! Who cares?

  Rose Nylund : Oysters move! Very slowly, you have to watch them.

• Dorothy : [First ever lines]  I taught a class today - the finest school in Dade County. Two girls had shaved heads and three boys had green hair.

  Coco : They're expressing themselves.

  Dorothy : Well I expressed myself - I told them they had to leave they were too ugly to look at. Now the parents are mad. A man in a three piece suit came in and defended Tiffany - a bald girl with a nose ring.

• Coco : Tea, Sophia?

  Sophia : How about a gin with a beer back?

• Rose Nylund : [Dicussing sleep]  Charlie on the other hand moves all night long - his side of the bed looks like a murder took place.

  Dorothy : Rose, Charlie is dead.

  Coco : Why tell her?

  Dorothy : Coco, its been 15 years.

  Rose Nylund : I know he's dead - I'm not crazy. I just like to speak of him in the present tense, sometimes, it makes him seem closer.

  Coco : That's fine Rose, you do that!

  Dorothy : Sure Rose - set a place at the table!
