Ted Quote #497

Quote from Ted in Shelter Island

Ted: We're getting married this Sunday? Are we sure we're ready for this?
Stella: Ted, I wasted years trying to get Lucy's dad to decide he was "ready" for this, but he never got ready for this. That's why we never got married. Come on, let's just be spontaneous. I used to dream that Tony would be spontaneous like this.
Ted: Okay, I'm in. And I'm also... spontaneous. [throws his glass of water in his face] I wish I hadn't done that.
