Memorable Quotes from Da'Vine Joy Randolph
3 quotesThe Complexity of Doing the Right Thing
Anna
I gotta say, I'm really proud of you, Larry. You're doing the right thing.
Larry
I feel terrible.
Anna
Yeah. That happens. Sometimes doing the right thing does feel terrible.
Larry
So, you never told me why you ended up staying here.
Anna
Um, coming here... I'll just say that coming here was an improvement for me. Here, I get to help lost souls find their happiness. And that gives me a sense of purpose. But after time, you stop caring about what's best for people. You're just pushing them along and making sure the afterlife is ticking over, you know? Sell, sell, sell. But then you came along. Yeah. With that great ordinary love. And you reminded me of why I chose this place. So, thank you for that, Larry.
Larry
Well, I guess you're welcome.

I'm afraid I can't. The dish contains brandy. Same deal with the bananas Foster.

Yeah, but doesn't the alcohol just burn off?
Waitress
It's still against the rules, ma'am.

Fine. I'll order the cherries jubilee. We can share it.
Waitress
Mm. I can't allow that, either.

Can we say it's his birthday?
