QUOTES
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan: And did you know as a girl growing up that one day you'd be a maid?
Aibileen Clark: Yes ma'am, I did.
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan: And you knew that because...
Aibileen Clark: My mama was a maid. My grandmama was a house slave.
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan: Did you ever dream of being something else?
Aibileen Clark: [nods yes]
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan: What does it feel like to raise a white child when your own child's at home being looked after by somebody else?
Mae Mobley: You my real mama, Aibi.
Aibileen Clark: 18 people were killed in Jackson that night. 10 white and 8 black. I don't think God has color in mind when he sets a tornado loose.
Hilly Holbrook: They carry different diseases than we do. That's why I've drafted the Home Health Sanitation Initiative.
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan: The what?
Hilly Holbrook: A disease-preventative bill that requires every white home to have a separate bathroom for the colored help. It's been endorsed by the White Citizen's Council.
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan: Maybe we should just build you a bathroom outside, Hilly.
Stuart Whitworth: Isn't that what all you girls from Ole Miss major in - professional husband hunting?
