Rue McClanahan: Blanche Devereaux

Quotes 

• Blanche Devereaux : My God! I'm hallucinatin'! I see little balls of sunshine in a bag! Does this mean somethin'?

  [holds up a bag of egg yolks] 

  Rose Nylund : Blanche, those are egg yolks.

  Blanche Devereaux : [smiling]  My brain's gone!

  Blanche Devereaux : [a few moments later; same bag of egg yolks]  Rose, what is this? Yellow eye balls are starin' at me!

• Blanche Devereaux : [about her romance novel]  I don't believe it - another rejection! And this one isn't even personal. It's a form letter! They just filled in my name at the top, see? Oh, I'm so upset. I put everything into this, Rose, all of me, I held nothing back. Then to have some snot-nosed little kid from Harvard send me a form letter - oh! I'm so mad I could scream... AHHHHHHHH!

  Rose Nylund : That's the first time I've ever seen someone say 'I'm so mad I could scream' and then actually do it. It's like 'I laughed all the way to the bank', I've never seen anybody do that either.

• Sophia : [Dorothy's getting ready for her doctor's appointment]  Wipe off your lipstick.

  Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak : What?

  Sophia : You look too healthy, maybe that's why nobody believes you, you don't *look* sick.

  [Blanche stumbles in in her nightclothes, bleary eyed and disoriented] 

  Sophia : She should go, they'd believe her.

  Blanche Devereaux : [exhausted]  What day is this?

• Rose Nylund : Good luck, Dorothy, I hope he finds something wrong.

  [Dorothy looks at her] 

  Rose Nylund : Oh not something *wrong* wrong, I mean wrong as in you know you're right when you say there's something wrong and you haven't been wrong all along.

  Blanche Devereaux : My God I am so tired I can't understand people when they speak anymore. What did she just say, Dorothy, was that a poem?
