Popular Luke Danes Quotes
Lorelai: That Lothario over there has wormed his way into my daughter's heart and mouth and for that he must die!
Luke: That's it, let's go.
Twelve guys stood in a row all night waiting for an enemy that never showed. They got stood up. They should've been wearing prom dresses.
Luke: It's me Harry, Luke. You've known me since I was 5 years old.
Mayor: Oh, Luke, yes. Sit down.
Tradition is a trap. It allows people to stick their head in the sand. Everything in the past was so quaint, so charming. Times were simpler. Kids didn't have sex. Neighbors knew each other. It's a freaking fairy tale. Things sucked then too. It just sucked without indoor plumbing.
Lorelai: I feel like this is one of those moments when I should be remembering all the great times I had with my dad, you know. The time he took me shopping for a Barbie or to the circus or fishing and my mind is a complete blank.
Luke: Well I'm sure it happened.
Lorelai: No it didn't. We never did any of that. He went to work, he came home, he read the paper, he went to bed, I snuck out the window. Simple. He was a very by the numbers guy. I was never very good with numbers.
Luke: I'm sure he loves you.
Lorelai: You know my dad is not a bad guy.
Luke: I'm sure he's not.
Lorelai: He lived his life the way he thought he was supposed to. He followed the rules taught to him by his non-fishing-non-Barbie-buying dad. He worked hard. He bought a nice house. He provided for my mom. All he asked in return was for his daughter to wear white dresses and go to cotillion and want the same life that he had. What a disappointment it must have been for him to get me.
Luke: I can't imagine anyone seeing you as a disappointment.
Luke: Just tell me you forbid her to see the bag boy.
Lorelai: I did not forbid her to see the bag boy.
Luke: Are you crazy?
Lorelai: Well, he looks like he's moving up to produce, so he's suddenly become quite a catch.
Luke: That kid is trouble.
Luke: You liked going...
Lorelai: I did.
Luke: Rory's there without you...
Lorelai: She is.
Luke: You and Rory aren't getting along right now and you feel bad at being separated during a time you usually share together.
Lorelai: Wow.
Luke: Did I mention you come here every damn day?
(Lorelai avoids going into Richard's room.)
Luke: So, who are you going to go find now?
Lorela: Stop.
Luke: How about Jimmy Hoffa? That'll keep you busy for a while.
Lorelai: I said stop.
Luke: You can't avoid going in that room forever.
Lorelai: I'm not avoiding anything. I'm going to find coffee.
Luke: The machine is jammed.
Lorelai: (Backing away) There are other machines.
Luke: Admit your afraid.
Lorelai: You have no idea what your talking about.
Luke:The truth hurts.
Lorelai: No, you know what hurts? Having a screwdriver jammed in the side of your head.
Luke: What? (Looks behind him and sees a person on a gurney.) Oh, my God!
Luke: C'mon, you gotta think positive here. Bright side, good thoughts. Rainbows, unicorns. (slowing down) Clowns. (pause) Little ... cute ... (longer pause) ... furry ... (giving up) Okay, I'm out.
Lorelai: Thank God.
(a group comes into the diner singing)...
Luke: What's going on...?
Taylor: Well, we were carolling around town and we got a bit chilly and we thought that maybe we could trade you a song for some hot chocolate...
Luke: You want free hot chocolate.
Taylor: No, no, we'll sing for it. Any tune you like.
Luke: ...And then I give you free hot chocolate.
Taylor: ...yeah...
Luke: Tell you what, you can have your hot chocolate, pay for it, then go next door and sing for the marshmallows.
Emily: So what is exactly going on between the two of you?
Luke: Nothing. Really. We're friends, that's it.
Emily: You're idiots-the both of you.
Lorelai: (speaking to Luke) Wow, you look nice. Really nice.
Luke: I had a meeting earlier at the bank. They like collars. You look nice, too.
Lorelai: I had a flagellation to go to.
Luke: So, what'll you have?
Lorelai: Coffee, in a vat.
Rory: I'll have coffee also. And chili fries.
Luke: That's quite a refined palate you got there.
(Luke walks to the counter)
Lorelai: (to Rory) Behold the healing powers of a bath.
