Emily Quote #552
Quote from Emily in I Am Kayak, Hear Me Roar
Emily: But you. You provide for yourself. You're not dependent on anyone. You're independent.
Lorelai: I am kayak, hear me roar.
Emily: I mean, look at you. For all these years, you've done very well without a husband.
Lorelai: Maybe so, but I still wanted it to work out.
Emily: You know, the way I was raised, if a married couple split up, it was a disaster, because it meant the system had fallen apart, and it was particularly bad for the woman because she had to go out and find herself another rich husband, only she was older now. But with you, it's not such a disaster, is it?
Lorelai: I guess not.
Emily: It's really not such a horrible thing that you're going to get a divorce, not really. Oh, you're gonna be fine.
Lorelai: Thanks, Mom.
Emily: You may even marry someone else someday. Who knows?
Lorelai: Who knows.

Quote from Emily
Emily: It's like a canoe.
Lorelai: What's like a canoe?
Emily: Life.
Lorelai: Okay.
Emily: You're just paddling along in a canoe.
Lorelai: Mother, have you ever been in a canoe?
Emily: Lorelai.
Lorelai: Well, I just can't picture you in a canoe.
Emily: Your father and I have been paddling a canoe together for years. Only now, he's dropped the paddle. He just dropped it. Not only that, but now the canoe is going in circles. Without your father there, I'm paddling on my side and the canoe is spinning in circles, and the harder I paddle, the faster it spins, and it's hard work, and I'm getting tired.
Quote from Lorelai
Emily: The idea that two grown men hitting a tiny ball with metal sticks is the equivalent of Hamlet... ridiculous. But can I say anything? No! Because I can't agitate him.
Lorelai: It is ridiculous. Golf is really more like Richard III. They're all hunched over.
Quote from Lorelai
Lorelai: What? Her mouth is moving. I can't hear anything. Is something wrong with my ears?
Rory: No, I don't think it's your ears, poor thing.
Lorelai: Ugh, this house is a giant Skinner box with Chippendale chairs.
