Richard Quote #89

Quote from Richard in Eight O'Clock at the Oasis

Lorelai: [on the phone] Dad, I explained this to Mom and I'll explain it to you. I'm not sixteen, I don't live with you anymore, I've been making my own decisions, romantic and otherwise, for a long time now and you can play all the golf you want but the subject better be letting chicks into the Augusta Golf Club because my love life is officially off limits.
Richard: Didn't you hear what I just said?
Lorelai: About the tea? Yes, I heard it, and I'm sorry, but it sounds insane.
Richard: Of course it sounds insane! It is insane, that is not the point.
Lorelai: Okay, then what's the point?
Richard: The point is your mother is upset, and I don't want her to be upset. Now, you may not understand her world, I may not understand her world, but it is her world, and in her world it is very, very important that she have the first cup of tea. And I don't care about your independence or what you told your mother or anything else you have to say. If my wife wants the first cup of tea, she's going to have the first cup of tea, that's it! Now, I will call you after I play golf.

Quote from Richard

Richard: Pork is bred leaner these days. It has a different taste. Less fat equals less flavor. Yet another example of the great advances man has made, flavorless pork. Hurrah for the opposable thumbs.
Lorelai: All right, enough talk about pork. Please, someone change the subject.

Quote from Lorelai

Lorelai: [laughs] And then the rabbit says, "How about that schnitzel!" Well?
Rory: Well what? There's no punchline.
Lorelai: That is the punchline.
Rory: "How about that schnitzel!" That's the punchline?
Lorelai: Well, no, not when you say it like that.
Rory: How am I supposed to say it?
Lorelai: Like a punchline.
Rory: How about that schnitzel!
Lorelai: Oh, forget it.

Quote from Michel

Michel: I'm sorry, did I hear you mention something about an auction?
Lorelai: My mother's women's group is having one next week.
Michel: Oh, well, you know. I love a good auction. The drama, the strategy.
Lorelai: The strategy?
Michel: Oh, yes. First, you mustn't be too eager because that drives the price way up.
Lorelai: Don't be too eager, got it.
Michel: And you must always be extremely careful of your paddle movements.
Lorelai: Well, that certainly calls for a "Dirty!"
Michel: How's your arm raise? Good?
Lorelai: Pretty good.
Michel: Ah, I have an excellent arm raise.
Lorelai: That's what it says on the bathroom wall.
