Quotes 

• Blanche : I haven't told you my wonderful news: my mother-in-law died.

  Rose Nylund : Oh, I'm sorry.

  Blanche : Well, I'm not. I loathed Mama Devereaux, and the feeling was entirely mutual. 'Til the day George died, she always introduced me as his 'first wife'. I just hope the old witch went slowly.

  Jamie : [later her brother-in-law Jamie arrives to settle Blanche's part of the estate]  Fortunately the business with the Will shouldn't take long.

  Blanche : I shouldn't think so. I'd hardly expect Mama Devereaux to leave me the family silver.

  Jamie : Well, as her executor I had to go over her Will with her, the list of beneficiaries. Well, she was pretty far gone by then, but when we got to your name, she kept repeatin' in this weak, little voice, "I want her to have it. I want her to have it."

  Blanche : Well, I am surprised.

  Jamie : She was talkin' about her disease.

• Blanche : [Blanche telling the girls about her night with her late husband George's brother, Jamie]  All we did all night was talk about George. How much George loved me, how George couldn't take his eyes off me, how George would have to save his money to buy presents good enough for me. It felt so good talking about George.

• Blanche : [after a long talk about her late husband George, with his brother Jamie over dinner]  It made me realize why, from the time I laid eyes on him 'til the day he died, there was never, never another man in my life.

  Dorothy Petrillo Zbornak : Oh, Blanche, you? You were never tempted.

  Blanche : Never.

  Sophia Petrillo : Didn't you have your milk delivered?
