Goodbye, Julia Sugarbaker

Southern Muse says goodbye to Dixie Carter, better known as "Julia Sugarbaker," of Designing Women. To her character is attributed one of our favorite quotes of all time:

"I'm saying this is the South. And we're proud of our crazy people. We don't hide them up in the attic. We bring 'em right down to the living room and show 'em off. See, Phyllis, no one in the South ever asks if you have crazy people in your family. They just ask what side they're on."

Ditto.

For what it's worth, nobody on earth could have delivered those lines like Dixie Carter. Thanks, Dixie! You will be sadly missed.
