Kirk: What's this?
Luke: Refill number 9.
Kirk: I thought you said I had to go.
Luke: You can hang a bit.
Kirk: Really?
Luke: Welcome to France. Coffee's on the house, though.
Kirk: Thanks, or should I say gracias?
Luke: In fact, everyone's coffee is on the house today. [to another customer] Like your hat.

Lorelai: Pull out the map you're hiding.
Rory: I'm not hiding a map. [off Lorelai's look] Well, I didn't wanna drive around aimlessly again today.
Lorelai: I got it. What's near?
Rory: Hmm. Concord.
Lorelai: What is that? Like, look at grapes?
Rory: Manchester.
Lorelai: Ugh, been there, done that.
Rory: You've never been there.
Lorelai: Well, I feel like I have.
Rory: Salem.
Lorelai: Ooh, witches and stonings. There's something there.

Rory: Boston, Newton, Needham.
Lorelai: Ooh, go, go, go back.
Lorelai: What? Boston? Newton? I know where we're going.
Rory: Where are we going?
Lorelai: You will love it.
Rory: If you tell me where we're going, I can chart a course, and I can- [Lorelai grabs the map] You're folding it wrong.
Lorelai: Is it smaller?
Rory: Yes.
Lorelai: Then it's not wrong. Let's go. I will get you a new one when we get there.

Rory: I don't believe it.
Lorelai: Believe it, because there it is.
Rory: Harvard University.
Lorelai: It's really real.
Rory: It looks just like the pictures.
Lorelai: It's beautiful.
Rory: What are we doing here?
Lorelai: We are beholding your future.
Rory: It's big.
Lorelai: You have a big future.

Rory: What do you know about Harvard?
Lorelai: I know this: Look, there's Harvard. Don't you want to see it? The place where you'll be living and studying and developing very naive but pretentious world views that will come crashing down the minute you graduate?
Rory: Yeah, I do.
Lorelai: So? Come on, you know you want to. All the other kids are doing it.
Rory: Harvard.

Lorelai: I think I'm gonna like college. Ooh, did you hear? I used 'existentialist' in a sentence.
Rory: I heard.
Lorelai: I've always wanted to do that.
Rory: It was very impressive.

Lorelai: The coast is clear.
Rory: The coast is not clear.
Lorelai: Susie!
Rory: We're now officially breaking and entering.
Lorelai: Susie.
Rory: Why are you saying that?
Lorelai: Because it's our cover in case we get caught. Plus, there's a 30% chance the girl living in this room is named Susie.

Rory: God, these classrooms are huge.
Lorelai: The better to fit those big Harvard brains.

Lorelai: I'm gonna find the ladies' room. Sneak a smoke, see if anyone slipped aspirin in my Coke.
Rory: Okay, Rizzo.

Rory: Did you see me?
Lorelai: Yes.
Rory: I was in college.
Lorelai: It was amazing.
Rory: Did I look like I belonged?
Lorelai: Completely. You're a natural.
Rory: I can't even believe how it happened. I just got swept up. The teacher asked a question, and before I knew it...
Lorelai: You were blowing them away.
Rory: I don't know about that but I was talking and I couldn't stop.
Lorelai: I know that feeling.
Rory: College is gonna be amazing. I can't wait. I love college. I love Harvard. I love fatalism.
