The wisdom of Sophia:

When I turn my hearing-aid up to ten, I can hear a canary break wind in Lauderdale!

There's just something I don't like about him. I can't put my finger on it, but if I did, I'd have to wash it.

Rose [enters from the kitchen with a pan in her hands]: Do you want to see my vanskap kaka?
Sophia: As long as I don't have to show you mine.

Rose [on St. Olaf]: Ned was sort of the town idiot.
Sophia: When, on your days off?

Rose [entering cheerfully]: Sooo, who's the luckiest girl in the history of the world!
Sophia: Well, it wasn't your mother.

Dorothy: You know, sometimes I can't believe my ears.
Sophia: I know. I should've taped them back when you were seven.

Blanche: Dorothy, do you think I'm dressed okay for the dog races?
Sophia: That depends – are you competing?

Sophia [about her late husband Sal]: May he rest in peace till I get there.
