Jackson Melville quotes from Gilmore Girls

I think we should get married. Soon.

Sookie

Are you pregnant?

Lorelai

Is Jackson in the house? Lemme hear ya say "ugh".

Ugh.

Lorelai

A new toy.

Rory

Shameless.

Sookie

I’m not getting rid of my knives, Jackson. I’m a chef, I have to have knives.

Sookie.

Sookie

And I’m also not cutting off the water supply and I’m not sanding down all the edges of my furniture. Now, I’m sorry that you think this house is a deathtrap, and I’m sorry that you think there is nothing in our lifestyles that is conducive to having a baby, but our kid is gonna have to be bright enough not to disconnect the water hose that goes to the automatic ice maker and shove it up his or her nose. Now go to sleep.

Rory

Headmaster Charleston, faculty members, fellow students, family and friends, welcome. We never thought this day would come. We prayed for its quick delivery, crossed days off our calendars, counted hours, minutes and seconds and now that it's here, I'm sorry it is, because it means leaving friends who inspire me and teachers who've been my mentors, so many people who've shaped my life, and my fellow students lives impermeably and forever. I live in two worlds. One is a world of books. I've been a resident of Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County, hunted the white whale aboard the Pequod, fought alongside Napoleon, sailed a raft with Huck and Jim, committed absurdities with Ignatius J. Reilly, rode a sad train with Anna Karenina and strolled down Swann's Way. It's a rewarding world, but my second one is by far superior. My second one is populated with characters slightly less eccentric, but supremely real, made of flesh and bone, full of love, who are my ultimate inspiration for everything. Richard and Emily Gilmore are kind, decent, unfailingly generous people. They are my twin pillars, without whom I could not stand. I am proud to be their grandchild. But my ultimate inspiration comes from my best friend, the dazzling woman from whom I received my name and my life's blood, Lorelai Gilmore...

Sookie

[With tears in her eyes] Uh, oh -

Lorelai

[Also on the verge of crying] Hang in there.

Rory

My mother never gave me any idea that I couldn't do whatever I wanted to do or be whomever I wanted to be. She filled our house with love and fun and books and music unflagging in her efforts to give me role models from Jane Austen to Eudora Welty to Patti Smith. As she guided me through these incredible eighteen years, I don't know if she ever realized that the person I most wanted to be was her...

Sookie

[Choked up] Not crying.

Lorelai

[Slightly crying] Crying a little.

Sookie

Crying a little, but not blubbering. That's what we meant when we said no crying. No blubbering.

Rory

[Tearfully] Thank you Mom, you are my guidepost for everything.

Sookie

On the verge of blubbering here.

[Choked up, tearfully] Not doing too well myself.

Lorelai

[Looks over to see Luke] Not you, too.

Luke

[Tearfully blubbering] I'm blubbering, you freaks!

Luke

What’s that, a toy?

Miss Patty

Oh, it’s awfully cute.

Taylor

That is a professionally manufactured diorama of the proposed business.

Rory

Wow, there’s little people and everything.

Sookie

They look so real.

Hey, it’s me holding a tiny zucchini!

Lorelai

Look at the horse drawn carriage.

Taylor

My thought was to park it out front with the name of the business painted on the side. It’s very eighteen-hundreds.

Babette

The horse is taller than the front door.

Lorelai

Way taller.

Luke

What are you up to, Taylor? Are you breeding giant horses?

Taylor

It’s slightly out of proportion.

Babette

Slightly? That little guy there could walk right under the horse without even ducking.

Sookie

If they're small enough to shove up our son's nose, they're too small!

No way could you shove one of these up Davey's nose.

Sookie

Bet you five bucks.

Get him in here!

Lorelai

[entering] Hey, guys. You probably shouldn't shove a radish up your son's nose. Just thinking out loud.

Remember my brother Bo? ...He thinks you're a nympho.

Sookie

: Thinks you're a nymphomaniac. That means you really dig the fellas.

Lorelai

I know what it means, but how? I didn't say two words to the guy when I met him. I said one. Hi. And that was not in response to "What's your sex drive like?"

Sookie

I could bake it into brownies.

But then what would we do with the brownies?

Lorelai

But I am a boring married person now!

Do you even like bowling?

Lorelai

Not when I was single. But maybe now that I'm married and boring it'll be right up my alley.

You have to wear the shoes.

Lorelai

Forget it.
