Quotes[]

Jackie: Roseanne, yelling at Darlene, it's like breathing! It's just an involuntary response!

Roseanne: I just asked one question and nobody can answer me. I asked, what's going on with my kid? That's not a stupid question, that's a question any person has a right to know. What's happening to my kid?
Dr. Bryce: Mr. and Mrs. Connor, Darlene's just out of surgery.
Roseanne: Is she all right?
Dr. Bryce: She's fine.
Roseanne: Then what am I yelling about?

Roseanne: Darlene, when are you gonna stop being such a smart mouth?
Darlene: Mmm, three weeks from next Tuesday.

Roseanne (while filling out hospital forms): I can't believe it, my kid's getting prepped for surgery and I'm here taking my SAT's.

(After Darlene wakes up from her appendectomy)
Dan: Does it hurt?
Darlene (sleepily): I can't really feel anything.
Roseanne: Can you feel this? (kisses Darlene's forehead)
