Quotes11

  • George: Smells fishy to me.
  • Blanche: Well even fish smells good when you're starving to death.
  • Blanche: Don't start to fret, George, or our waterbed will be no fun at all tonight; as an actor, you should know that fretting will ruin a performance.
  • George: You don't have to worry about my performance tonight, honey - as a matter of fact, this very evening, you're gonna see a standing ovation!
  • Blanche: You're a fink!
  • George: If I'm a fink then you're an ungrateful bitch.
  • George: It was me. It's always me. Without my research, you're about as psychic as a dry salami.
  • Blanche: Nasty. Nasty, nasty.
  • Blanche: Neither of us seems to be very fond of starving to death.
  • George: Well, how are we supposed to collect? How much is this Rainbird whale gonna spout up?
  • George: Well, what's the deal? What do we have to do?
  • Blanche: I'll tell you about it in bed, afterwards.
  • George: Aw, come on, Blanche. Give me a hint. Just a little - foreplay.
  • George: So how did it go?
  • Blanche: She's hooked, waiting to be pulled in.
  • George: Another one of your $25 sardines?
  • Blanche: No. This is a *big* one, George. A great big whale.
  • George: I'm sick and tired of having you hang me by the crystal balls.
  • Blanche: Leave your crystal balls out of this, George.
  • George: Blanche, you got any idea what you and I could do with ten grand?
  • Blanche: Mm-hmm. We could even get married.
  • George: What are you always a wet blanket for?
  • Blanche: Oh, you flatter me so.
  • Blanche: She gave me a marvelous clue.
  • George: Here we go again.
  • Blanche: No, here you go again - to the man who might tell you if Shoebridge is dead or alive.
  • George: Who's that?
  • Blanche: Bishop Wood at St. Anselm's Cathedral.
  • George: Holy Christ, Blanche!
  • Blanche: No, George, not him. Bishop Wood at St. Anselm's Cathedral.
  • Blanche: Where are ya going?
  • George: I'm going home to my own bed where I can get some sleep.
  • Blanche: No, you're not.
  • George: Blanche, is that all you've ever got on your mind?
  • Blanche: What are you saving it for, a rainy day?
  • George: Honey, you never know when you're gonna need it.
  • Blanche: You're not being friendly, Lumley.
  • George: Blanche, I'm too pooped to pop. I'd be useless to you.
  • Blanche: You're always useless to me! You're always pooping out when I need you the most!
