Lorelai Quote #253
Quote from Lorelai in Double Date
Lorelai: You know, it doesn't always work to lock a kid up and throw away the key.
Mrs. Kim: I didn't throw away the key. It's in the kitchen.
Lorelai: Okay. Well, I was talking symbolically but all right, I'm with you now. [sighs] Look, when I was a teenager, my parents tried to keep me locked up. They tried to force me to become what they had in mind. And now I'm not talking exactly about Lane here, but in my case, it really didn't work.
Mrs. Kim: You blame your parents for getting pregnant?
Lorelai: No. I think if I'd had a little more space or someone to listen to me things might have turned out different. Now, I got lucky. Because having Rory... totally the best thing that could have happened. But let's be honest. I certainly don't want Rory to turn out like me.
Mrs. Kim: I don't want Lane to turn out like you either.
Lorelai: I believe that's the first thing you and I have ever agreed on.
Mrs. Kim: I just want Lane to be safe.
Lorelai: I just want Rory to be safe. I'm gonna go now. Hey, I think you are doing a great job with Lane. She's a really great kid. I just wanted to put my two cents in, because that's what I do. So... bye. [vase shatters] I know, "You break, you buy." I heard earlier. That's $35, right?

Lorelai: You're baiting me, aren't you?
Michel: No. I seriously have no faith in your aptitude.
Quote from Michel

Lorelai: Once again I say, 'Yes, Michel?'
Michel: Are you sure you wouldn't like me to wait?
Lorelai: No, Michel.
Michel: Because learning the eating patterns of the average Taco Bell consumer is a vital lesson that...
Lorelai: Michel, what do you want?
Michel: We're overbooked.
Lorelai: How are we overbooked?
Michel: Well, there are more people here than there are rooms to put them in.
Quote from Sookie
Lorelai: I think you should do it now before you lose your nerve.
Sookie: Well, he isn't back to his office yet.
Lorelai: Does he have a cell phone?
Sookie: Yes.
Lorelai: You know, people buy cell phones for exactly this reason. So you can get a hold of them any time you want.
Sookie: I thought people bought cell phones in case their cars broke down at night and they had to call someone for help and there's psycho killers...
