Quote #10
"What do you mean?" she whined. "How could you be writing an autobiography? You haven't done anything." (29.45)
Gladys sure is a downer, right? Here, she's responding to Nina's announcement that she's written an autobiography by saying Nina can't write that kind of narrative because she doesn't have any life experience to write about. Right after this, Dave leaps to Nina's defense, saying that she's done a lot. So maybe a person's experiences and accomplishments are kind of subjective.
