Blanche DuBois

They told me to take a streetcar named Desire, and then transfer to one called Cemeteries and ride six blocks and get off at Elysian Fields.

I know I fib a good deal. After all, a woman's charm is fifty percent illusion, but when a thing is important I tell the truth...

I don't want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic. I try to give that to people. I do misrepresent things. I don't tell the truth. I tell what ought to be truth.

A cultivated woman - a woman of breeding and intelligence - can enrich a man's life immeasurably. I have those things to offer, and time doesn't take them away. Physical beauty is passing - transitory possession - but beauty of the mind, richness of the spirit, tenderness of the heart - I have all those things - aren't taken away but grow! Increase with the years!

--Blanche DuBois, Southern Belle
A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)

A SOUTHERNER

    A Southerner is a special person
    With a warm smile and a friendly drawl
    Who comes equipped with a special charm
    Underneath that pleasant "ya'll".


    This charm comes from a rich heritage
    Love for others, our homes, and our God,
    A love that men fought and died for
    Along paths that our forefathers trod.


    It's more than just love for our mountains,
    Summer nights, green forest, blue lakes.
    It's more than dogwoods, mint juleps and such
    Or pecan pies that our grandmother bakes.


    It's a love for neighbors, for family, and friends
    Love for freedom, for truth and what's right.
    Only below that old Mason Dixion line
    Can you find this deep love filled with pride.


    It's a love that some people may envy,
    It's a love that others may dread
    But this love makes you proud if you have it,
    You're a SOUTHERNER - born and bred.

    8. Smiling Southern Belles are the one of the most beautiful
          sights to behold.
    9. People will stop by to help a fellow traveller in distress.
  10. You can ask for directions and people will offer
          them with a smile.

Southern Wisdom

In the South, the war is what A.D. is elsewhere; they date from it.
