Paris Quote #115

Quote from Paris in I Can't Get Started

Rory: No, I don't want to be in politics. I just want to write about it.
Paris: You won't have to do anything. I'll do the work and make the speeches. You just have to sit there and be nice.
Rory: No. Bye. [walks away]
Paris: Harvard loves this kind of crap. [Rory walks back] Being Vice-President is just one more thing to put you ahead of the rest of hundreds of thousands of straight A students who are applying for the same spot you are. Think about it. You say no then comes the day when the letter from Harvard arrives. They've turned you down. Enjoy Connecticut State, sucker. Tell me you won't be thinking, "What if I had just run with Paris?" "What if the one thing that could have ensured my place behind those ivy-covered walls I just walked away from?"
Rory: Fine.
Paris: Yes. Okay.
Rory: I guess just being nice to people never occurred to you?
Paris: See, that is exactly what I need from you. Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm for the new millennium. Hey, wear some braids tomorrow, with bows. I mean, hell, let's sell it, sister.

Quote from Sookie

Sookie: Well, those are some alternative songs, but I really like this one.

Sookie: Paul wrote it for Julian to cheer him up.
Lorelai: "Seasons In The Sun"?

Quote from Michel

Lorelai: Michel, how is the RSVP list coming?
Michel: Well, I must say this has been especially challenging for me. When you are talking about a wedding with up to 40 people all living within a five-mile radius, how can one person be expected to keep track of all of that?
Lorelai: Just an answer will do.
Michel: You know, it got a little hairy there for a moment. I almost needed a second sheet of paper.
Lorelai: I'm not going to let you annoy me out of making you handle it.
Michel: Oh, we'll see.

Quote from Lorelai

Lorelai: You know what I just realized? "Oy" is the funniest word in the entire world.
Rory: Hmm.
Lorelai: I mean, think about it. You never hear the word "oy", and not smile. Impossible. Funny, funny word.
Emily: Oh, dear God.
Lorelai: "Poodle" is another funny word.
Emily: Please drink up, Lorelai.
Lorelai: In fact, if you put "oy" and "poodle" together in the same sentence you'd have a great new catchphrase. Like, "Oy with the poodles already". [Rory laughs] So from now on, when the perfect circumstances arise we'll use our favorite new catchphrase: "Oy with the poodles already". I'm telling you, it's knocking "What you talking about, Willis?" out of first place.
