Dolores Claiborne

Sometimes, Delores, you have to be a high riding bitch in order to survive, because being a bitch is all a woman has to hold on to..

Vera: It's a depressingly masculine world we live in, Delores. Delores: Maybe I'm wrong? Vera: What if you're right? Husbands die everyday, Delores, why, one is probably dying right now while you're sitting here weeping.

     They die and leave their wives their money.  I should know, shouldn't I?  Sometimes they're driving home from their mistress's
     apartment and their brakes suddenly fail.  An accident, Delores, can be an unhappy woman's best friend. 

Vera: Sometimes, Delores, sometimes you have to be a high riding bitch to survive. Sometimes being a bitch is all a woman has to hang on to.
