Lorelai Quote #2198

Quote from Lorelai in You've Been Gilmored

Rory: [o.s.] I thought there was no June 3rd.
Lorelai: No, there's a June 3rd. Just because we don't get married on a date doesn't make it cease to exist.
Rory: You know what I mean.
Lorelai: I was on the spot. I just didn't want to go through the whole "the wedding was postponed" explanation.
Rory: Why not?
Lorelai: Because that would lead to the "what happened?" conversation, which would lead to the "I told you so" conversation and the "what is wrong with you that you can't close the deal?" conversation, which would lead to the "why is Lorelai slamming her head against the wall?" conversation. So I just said June 3rd. It could still happen, and if it doesn't, I'll blow up that bridge when we come to it.

Quote from Richard

Richard: Better not wait. Small gaps in your insurance coverage can lead to big mistakes. Oh, I could tell you horror stories.
Emily: Brian Hunter.
Richard: Yes. He owned a home for 40 years - huge mansion - never updated his coverage. One night, his trophy bimbo wife got into a drunken snit, lit a curtain on fire with her marijuana cigarette, and burned the place to the ground. He couldn't afford to rebuild. Lost his fortune, lost the bimbo.
Emily: Now he sells sunglasses out of the back of a van in California. Cheap ones.
Richard: Because he didn't update his coverage.
