Drella: Oh, ah... um, I'm sorry, did you not want a harp player?
Lorelai: Yes, I did.
Drella: Did you not want a great harp player?
Lorelai: (sighs) Yes, I did.

(to Sookie about Rory) This is it. She can finally go to Harvard like she's always wanted, and get the education that I never got, and get to do all the things that I never got to do. And then I can resent her for it, and we can finally have a normal mother-daughter relationship.

Rory: When are you going to let your parents know that you listen to the evil rock music? You're an American teenager, for God's sake.

Lorelai: Does he talk at all?
Rory: No, Mom, he's a mime.
