Geneva Quotes in The Dilemma (2011)

Geneva: I have a question for the table. How long does it take before you really know someone?

Beth: I think that you are always continuing to know someone. As time changes, so do we. I say that when things are tough and you see how someone is, you get a good sense of who they are.

Ronny Valentine: Yeah, that's right.

Nick Brannen: Well, I think that you can know in the first ten seconds of seeing someone. That's how I fell in love with Geneva.

Geneva: Awww.

Milly: What do you know about Eric? Have you ever seen him do anything weird?

Geneva: That;s all I've ever seen him do.

Milly: No, I mean really weird.

Geneva: Dinky Patterson told me something weird about him once.

Milly: Who's Dinky Patterson?

Geneva: Dinky lived here before you; had your room. Anyway, Dinky used to get really annoyed with Eric climbing around outside his window. So, one day, he took his BB gun, stuffed the barrel with wet Kleenex and started shooting at Eric.

Milly: That's real sweet.

Geneva: He said he kept it up for about an hour, but Eric wouldn't budge, so he finally gave up. Here's the weird part: the next day, Dinky's looking around for his BB gun. You know where he said he found it? See that telephone pole? Dinky said it was up there, up on top of that box. That, somehow, Eric put it there. Of course, Dinky was the biggest liar I ever knew. It probably never happened.

Milly: Probably. What happened to Dinky? Why did he move?

Geneva: His dad got some hotshot job in Atlanta. Took the whole family.

[pause]

Geneva: So, where's your dad?

Milly: He died.

Geneva: What of?

Milly: [flatly] Cancer.

Geneva: Everyone in my family dies of cancer. My grandmother had stomach cancer. She lost 300 pounds before she died. Never looked better in her life. What kind did your dad have?

Milly: I don't know.

Geneva: They didn't tell you. They never tell the kids. Did it take a long time?

Milly: Can we drop the subject?

Geneva: [Discussing the embalming of her daughter, Annabelle] All I ask is that you make her beautiful one last time.
