Paris Quote #219

Quote from Paris in A Family Matter

Paris: [on the phone] Well, probably not tonight, unfortunately. Things are really bad on my end. I know, I'm so sorry but tonight was tentative, remember? Tonight wasn't set in stone. Well, I'm - dead tired, I have tons of studying to do and we have a little drama going on here at the suite. Rory's small town friend, Lane, is crashing in with us. She got kicked out of her house, and she's in pretty bad shape. She's pretty heavy into the drugs, totally Nancy Spungening it, chasing the dragon, and I kind of have to be here for support. The chick's bouncing off the walls. Yeah. Tomorrow, sure, absolutely. Tonight was tentative, Jamie, I'm sure I told you to pencil it in. Pencil. Okay, bye.

Quote from Luke

Luke: What a lie it all is!
Lorelai: All what is?
Luke: Families. I mean, they're just messes. It's like this spilled drink that just keeps spilling, and ya gotta keep cleaning it up, and you scrub and you scrub and you just can't get the stain up! Show me a happy family, just one. I mean, didn't that Tolstoy-guy say something about families?
Lorelai: Probably.
Luke: It's a famous thing he said. It's like: "all families are unhappy" or, or, or "happy on the surface", or "unhappy in the same way".
Lorelai: Sounds a little incomplete.
Luke: Well, y'know, maybe he couldn't complete the thought because he was dealing with his stinkin' family.

Quote from Paris

Rory: So, you're just sitting here watching TV?
Paris: I'm studying. Look at Ted Kennedy, huh? I always admired him as a senator, but you see him and think: It's just so unfair that fat men look good in suits. We girls get a couple of pounds and every piece of fashion betrays us.

Quote from Paris

Paris: It was his accent that did it. I'm such the total Anglophile. When I was a kid, I was in love with Neal Kinnock.
Rory: Who?
Paris: The former head of the Labour party. Teeth like a horse, but oh that voice. And then there was Roger Moore.
Rory: English accents are nice.
