Rory Quote #385

Quote from Rory in A Tale of Poes and Fire

Rory: Bed is not a life plan, and you, my friend, need a life plan, so here it is. You need to tell your parents about Harvard. You need to start taking calls from people. You need to check the mail so that you can see the other millions of universities that have no doubt accepted you and that are probably dying to be in the Paris Geller business. You need to call your boyfriend back because he's going to be worried about you and because none of this is his fault, and you need to start by getting the hell out of bed.
Paris: You did not just say "be in the Paris Geller business."
Rory: You know what I meant.
Paris: There is no alternative to Harvard.
Rory: Except Princeton, Yale, Columbia, Stanford, Sarah Lawrence, et cetera, et cetera.
Paris: Well, maybe you're right.
Rory: I'm unquestionably right.
Paris: But I'm not jumping up this second.
Rory: You don't have to rush it.
Paris: And I'm going to have to keep watching this, at least until Adriana's wrongful conviction for aggravated assault is overturned.
Rory: I understand.
