Emily Quote #278
Quote from Emily in An Affair to Remember
Lorelai: [on the phone] So the reason I'm calling is we haven't heard from you yet, and we really need to nail down some of the details of the party.
Emily: "We" haven't heard from you yet?
Lorelai: Yes, we - me and Sookie.
Emily: Ah, yes, the Independence Catering Company.
Lorelai: Uh-huh. So, anyhow...
Emily: You know, a few years ago, there was a company called Independent Catering. They were all the rage until they catered the Kirov benefit for diabetes that sent 300 people to the hospital with a vicious case of food poisoning. Well, needless to say, they went out of business immediately, and I believe one of them left town without packing.
Lorelai: Oh, well, that's a good story. Hans Christian Anderson?
Emily: You know, some people could mistake the Independence Catering Company with the Independent Catering Company, and that would just be a shame for you, wouldn't it? Now if I'd known what you were going to name your company, I could have warned you.

Quote from Lorelai
Lorelai: Cheeseburger, onion rings, and a list of people who killed their parents and got away with it. I'm looking for heroes.
Quote from Lorelai
Emily: [on the phone] You must think I'm a complete idiot.
Lorelai: No, Mom, I don't.
Emily: There is no flier. You're making it up to cover for the fact that you once again neglected to tell me about an important event in your life.
Lorelai: Mom, I swear there's a flier.
Emily: Shame on you for swearing there's a flier. That's the worst possible thing you could do.
Lorelai: Liv Tyler grew up her entire life thinking Todd Rundgren was her real father. You think that might knock this out of first place?
Quote from Lorelai
Lorelai: I can't believe we're doing this.
Sookie: Well, you did tell her to treat us like any other catering service.
Lorelai: "I'd like you to do a test meal, Lorelai. After all, you are a new company." She must be so happy right now. She's probably been cackling into her magic mirror all morning.
