Myrtle Mae Simmons: Sorry, Mama.
Veta Louise Simmons: Elwood is the biggest heartache I have but he's still my brother. And he won't be here this afternoon.
Myrtle Mae Simmons: Are you sure?
Veta Louise Simmons: Of course I'm sure.
Myrtle Mae Simmons: Well, Mother, why can't we live like other people?
