Quotes 

• Rose : That's it. Finished. No more men. Enough's enough. In the end they all deceive you. After all I've done for that swine, to leave me for another woman. I don't care if she *is* his wife.

• Hyacinth : Rose! Have you been drinking?

  Rose : I haven't been drinking. I took a pill. And it seems to have gone straight to me knees.

  Hyacinth : I wish you could say the same about your skirt.

• [last lines] 

  The Vicar's Wife : [discovers Rose lying on top of the vicar]  Well!

  Rose : It's all right; I'm going to be a nun.

• Rose : [Drunkenly, as Hyacinth tries to restrain her]  I want to be a nun! Put me down; I want to be a nun!

  Hyacinth : Richard, give me a hand!

  Richard : Funny how you mishear things. I could have sworn she said she wanted to be a nun!

  Rose : I do! I DO!

• Hyacinth : [She and Richard are struggling, and failing, to keep a staggering Rose upright]  Try to stay on your feet!

  Rose : [Drunkenly]  Knees! If I'm going to be a nun, I should be on me knees!

  Richard : It's ME who'll be on my knees!

  Rose : Oh! Richard wants to be a nun, too!

• Rose : I'm taking the veil - I'm going to be a nun.

  Daisy : Your skirt's too short!

• Richard : [Speaking of Rose]  How many pills did she TAKE?

  Rose : [Drunkenly, laughing]  I'll tell you something... this being a nun makes you feel really good! I feel uplifted!
