Rory Quote #17
Quote from Rory in The Lorelais' First Day at Chilton
Hanlin Charleston: I've known your grandparents for quite some time.
Rory: I know.
Hanlin Charleston: In fact, I was at a party at their house just last week where I had the most delicious lobster puffs I've ever eaten. I'm very fond of them.
Rory: That's nice.
Hanlin Charleston: None of this, however, will be of any benefit to you. Chilton has one of the highest academic standards of any school in America. You may have been the smartest girl at Stars Hollow but this is a different place. Pressures are greater, the rules are stricter and the expectations are higher. If you make it through you will have received one of the finest educations one can get. And there should be no reason why you should not achieve all your goals. However, since you are starting late and are not used to this highly competitive atmosphere, there is a good chance you will fail. That is fine. Failure is a part of life. But not a part of Chilton. Understand?
Rory: So, you liked the lobster puffs, huh?
Hanlin Charleston: Take this to Miss James in the administration office across the hall.

Quote from Emily
Lorelai: What are you doing here, Mother?
Emily: I told you, I came to put in a good word for Rory.
Lorelai: Well, she didn't need a good word.
Emily: I'm not allowed here, is that it?
Lorelai: I didn't say that.
Emily: I'm allowed to pay for it, but I can't set foot on the premises. I just want to get the rules straight.
Lorelai: Oh, boy.
Emily: How about driving down the street?
Lorelai: Forget it.
Emily: Maybe I should avoid this neighborhood altogether. Though my doctor is just down the block. Maybe I can get special permission if I'm bleeding from the head.
Quote from Michel
Elderly Woman: [British accent] This will be absolutely wonderful. There are supposed to be darling shops all up and down this street. Oh, excuse me, sir. Can you tell me where we can find the best antiques?
Michel: At your house, I'd guess.
Quote from Lorelai
Lorelai: Well, we like our Internet slow, okay? We can turn it on, walk around, do a little dance, make a sandwich. With DSL, there's no dancing, no walking, and we'd starve. It'd be all work and no play. Have you not seen The Shining, Mom?
Emily: What on earth are you talking about?
Lorelai: Also, there will be no cars, no parking spaces. And all the uniforms will be supplied by me. The mother. That's final. There will be no discussion.
Emily: You're being stubborn as usual.
Lorelai: No, Mom, I'm not being stubborn as usual. I'm being me. The same person who always needed to work out her own problems and take care of herself, because that's the way I was born. That's how I am!
Emily: Florence, I'm dripping.
Lorelai: I appreciate what you have done for Rory in paying for her school. That will not be forgotten. You won't let it. But she is my daughter. And I decide how we live, not you. Now, then... do they validate parking here?
Emily: There's a stamp at the desk.
Lorelai: Thank you.
