Sookie Quote #286
Quote from Sookie in The Great Stink
Lorelai: Wow, the smell is amazingly not terrible in here. What'd you do?
Sookie: Well, after the town meeting, I decided to make some baked apples with cinnamon and nutmeg.
Lorelai: This is apples and cinnamon?
Sookie: Mnh-mnh. The apples failed me. I mean, a terrifically famous smell, right? A powerful tool in the hands of a real-estate agent. Against the pickles, powerless.
Lorelai: What is it? It makes me happy.
Sookie: When the apples failed, I tried cheeses and breads and chocolates. But nothing could mask the power of the pickles.
Lorelai: You know, I think my sense of smell is ruined. The insides of my nose are burned out.
Sookie: Then, I decided if you can't beat them, join them. Embrace the pickle!

Quote from Paris
Bill: When the editor in chief isn't here, the managing editor's in charge. That's standard operating procedure at every newspaper in the country.
Paris: Yes, but I've done this 1,000 times, and you've never done it, Bill. Experience.
Bill: Experience that led to a mutiny. It's not like anyone ever gave Captain Bligh another ship after the Bounty.
Paris: Of course they did, multiple ships, and by the time he died, they promoted the guy to Rear Admiral. Do you think the British royal navy ruled the world in the 19th century by letting that much natural talent and leadership capability go to waste just because a few whiny complainers wanted more breadfruit and less scurvy?
Quote from Richard
Richard: Well, naturally I thought they were referring to the archduke. So I jumped in, as who wouldn't? With some thoughts about the various conspiracy theories surrounding his infamous assassination in Sarajevo. Imagine my surprise when I learned that Franz Ferdinand was the name of a very popular rock-'n'-roll band.
Emily: [laughs] That's what he gets for trying to fraternize after class with his students.
Richard: One of them even offered to burn a CD for me.
Quote from Emily
Emily: Of course, this time of year, so many people start playing that awful winter tennis with the chicken-wire cages and the heated courts.
Richard: Platform tennis can be very enjoyable, Emily.
Emily: Yes, but it looks ridiculous, like glorified ping-pong. If I wanted to play ping-pong, I would... Well, if I wanted to play ping-pong, I would kill myself.
