Quote from Rory in That Damn Donna Reed
Rory: "Catherine the Great, 1729 to'96. Empress of Russia, 1762 to '96." Lorelai: Hold still, please. Rory: "Originally named Sophie Friederike Auguste von Anhalt-Zerbst." Lorelai: But everybody called her Kitten. Rory: "Married to Grand Duke Peter of Holstein in 1754." Lorelai: Rory, seriously- Rory: "The marriage was an unhappy one." Lorelai: There were way too many names. Ow! Lady with notecards, look at lady with needle and focus so I can sew the button on your sweater and not on my thumb. Rory: I'm sorry.
