Lorelai Quote #443
Quote from Lorelai in Love, Daisies and Troubadours
Max Medina: [on the phone] You were right last night. I shouldn't have proposed to you like that. It was stupid. It was the wrong place and the wrong time. I kicked myself the entire night for doing it. But you were wrong about something, too. I didn't propose to you because we were fighting. I proposed because I love you. We're in a bad pattern, Lorelai, and we have to break it. And other than that murder-suicide thing, which would be illegal and messy I can only think to be impetuous. No, listen. I woke up this morning and I realized that I have studied and taught the great literature all my life. And those stories are replete with characters that let opportunities slip by. But what I teach is more than just literature. It's lessons in life.
If I don't follow those tenets I'm not the man I thought I was, the man I want to be.
Lorelai: God, you talk so good.
Max Medina: I don't want an answer now. I've thought about this. I want you to do the same. I love you, Lorelai Gilmore. And I know this to be true. I'll talk to you later.

Quote from Michel
Lorelai: Michel, get that, please.
Michel: I cannot.
Lorelai: We've been over this. We all cover the phone. That includes you.
Michel: Don't misunderstand. I wanted to answer it, I truly did. But today, I'm suffering from ennui.
Lorelai: Ennui?
Michel: Severe ennui. You know what ennui is, yes?
Lorelai: Yes, Webster's defines ennui as a lazy, soon-to-be-out-of-work French concierge who won't answer the phone.
Michel: Look, I've made my peace with the fact that everyone who calls here is a notch above brain dead. And that the pennies I am thrown each week are in exchange for me dealing with these people in a nonviolent manner. And usually that is fine, but today, sorry, lady, I have ennui.
Lorelai: So, you're sleepy?
Michel: It's a metaphysical angst.
Lorelai: So you want to go beddy-bye?
Michel: You make light, it increases my ennui.
Quote from Sookie
Lorelai: Okay, that's it. Come on, you need coffee. I need coffee, extra strong. Double caf, triple caf. No, forget the caf. Throw in the whole cow, and serve it to this man right here. [Sooki is silent] What's wrong with you?
Sookie: I don't know. It might sound a little weird, but I think I've got...
Lorelai: Oh, no.
Sookie: ...ennui.
Lorelai: You explained ennui to her.
Michel: She asked me what was wrong with me earlier, so I told her.
Lorelai: Michel, you know that Sookie ends up thinking she's coming down with whatever illness other people have.
Sookie: No! No?
Lorelai: What was that whole conversation last week when I had to convince you, you didn't have a prostate?
Sookie: Oh. How is Al? Hello?
Quote from Lorelai
Luke: It's only me.
Lorelai: You scared me half to death!
Luke: Who'd you think it was?
Lorelai: Well, I don't know! I heard thudding upstairs and Rory weighs, like, 10 ounces. And it either had be an escaped elephant or some strange, large man who should not be in the house.
