Quotes12

  • Mrs. Kim: [to David, in response to his request to take Lane to the prom] "Let never day nor night unhallowed pass, but still remember what the Lord hath done."
  • [he leaves, confused]
  • Mrs. Kim: [the next day, David confronts Mrs. Kim]
  • Dave Rygalski: I stayed up all night. I read the entire Bible cover to cover. I don't know what it means.
  • Mrs. Kim: David...
  • Dave Rygalski: You have to tell me what it means. Is it "yes?" Is it "no?" I can't feel my right elbow any more. I don't even know why, but I... I can't.
  • Mrs. Kim: David!
  • Dave Rygalski: [pleading] Please. Just tell me. I'm so tired.
  • Mrs. Kim: It's not from the Bible.
  • Dave Rygalski: What?
  • Mrs. Kim: It's Shakespeare. Hevry VIth. I like to goof off now and then too, you know.
  • Dave Rygalski: Shakespeare?
  • Mrs. Kim: That is a very difficult thing to do, reading the Bible in one night. I myself have only done it three times. You need great determination and excellent light. I'm very impressed.
  • Dave Rygalski: [he looks at her expectantly]
  • Mrs. Kim: All right.
  • Dave Rygalski: All right what?
  • Mrs. Kim: You can go to the prom, but you can not get married.
  • Dave Rygalski: That seems fair to me.
  • [the quotation is from Henry VI, Act ii, Sc.1]
  • Dave: You're drunk.
  • Lane: No, I'm... am I?
  • Dave: We're going on in five minutes. Can you even play?
  • Lane: Oh, I can hit the sticks on those brums.
  • Dave: Great, great, but what about the drums?
  • Dave Rygalski: A few weeks ago you told me that Lane had a crush on me. Well, I have a crush on her, too. Now, I know you have very strict rules about dating and boys, but I just want you to know that I'm a good person. I don't smoke, I don't drink, I've never gotten a ticket, I'm healthy, I take care of myself, I floss. I never watch more than 30 minutes of television a night partly because I think it's a waste of time and partly because there's nothing on. I respect my parents, I do well in school, I never play video games in case they do someday prove that playing them can turn you into a serial killer. I don't drink coffee. I hate soda because the carbonation freaks me out. I'm happy to give up meat if you feel strongly about it. I don't mind wearing a tie. I enjoy playing those hymns on my guitar, and I really, really want to take your daughter to the prom.
  • Dave Rygalski: [Mrs. Kim doesnt say anything] Mrs. Kim? Please don't make me repeat that list again.
  • Mrs. Kim: Let never day nor night unhallow'd pass, but still remember what the Lord hath done.
  • Dave Rygalski: Okay, thank you.
  • Dave Rygalski: [Dave and Lane walk outside] Did you hear what she said?
  • Lane: Yes, I did.
  • Dave Rygalski: What did it mean?
  • Lane: I don't know.
  • Dave Rygalski: Was it a yes, was it a no?
  • Lane: I'm not sure.
  • Dave Rygalski: Well, it's gotta be from the bible, right? So I'll just go home, do some research, look on the Internet, see what I can find. I'll call you when I know something.
  • Lorelai: Boy, you'd think love songs are all you and Lane would wanna play.
  • Zach: Man, this crunch just now sounded like the drum-fill in Baba O'Reilly.
  • Dave: Yeah, Zach, a musical mouth. That's awesome.
  • Zach: But why would Dave and Lane wanna play just love songs?
  • Lorelai: Because, I was just thinking, you know, with Dave's name - Dave - you've got the last two letters in love. V, E. And with Lane's name, you have the L. You can just dump the A and add an O and there you go.
  • Rory: Guys, that was amazing. Really, it was awesome.
  • Dave: Thanks.
  • Zach: Dude, you did good, you really did. But you got a little too close to me when you were singing into the mike.
  • Brian: I got as close as I had to.
  • Zach: Your nose touched my cheek, man. That's too close.
  • Zach: Yeah. Dave, you're a Christian. So what? That's cool.
  • Brian: It's nothing to hide.
  • Zach: Christians can still rock.
  • Dave: They can?
  • Lane: Yeah, yeah, Dave. Christians can still rock, don't hide it.
  • Zach: Marshall Stacks don't know Christians from atheists.
  • Dave: Gosh, I just wasn't sure if you guys would be accepting of my devoutness.
  • Brian: Dave, it's a part of you, and we think you're cool, so it's cool.
  • Dave: Great. Thanks, guys.
  • Zach: But no way are we playing Creed, man.
  • Dave: Oh, no, of course not.
  • Zach: Or Amy Grant. That's where we draw the line.
  • Dave: Anyhow, I hadn't seen you in a while, and I thought I'd come down and maybe we could figure something out on this band issue.
  • Lane: Sure, we could do that.
  • Dave: Plus, I missed you.
  • Lane: You did? You missed me?
  • Dave: Well, yeah. Did you miss me?
  • Lane: Oh, yeah, definitely. I definitely, definitely missed you.
  • Dave: Glad and relieved to hear it.
  • Dave: Thank you. You know, my parents would love these sandwiches. I wish I could bring 'em by but unfortunately they're in private bible study right now.
  • Zach: Whoa, cool.
  • Dave: We all finished at the same time.
  • Lane: That has never happened.
  • Brian: The middle of that song didn't even sound like us.
  • Dave: Yeah, it sounded good.
  • Dave: Wow, you run really quiet.
  • Lane: Sorry, I'm sorry about everything.
  • Dave: What?
  • Lane: The whole night. I had no idea she'd make you play five straight hours without a break.
  • Dave: It's okay.
  • Lane: Your hands must be dead.
  • Dave: They're just a little numb. But I've got these Kurt Cobain calluses now, how cool is that?
  • Dave: What we need is a name.
  • Brian: I made my suggestion.
  • Zach: Yeah, and we vetoed "The Harry Potters." Next.
  • Brian: So yours is better?
  • Zach: "Follow Them to the Edge of the Dessert" is memorable and classy.
  • Brian: I run out of breath every time I say it.
  • Zach: You've got asthma, dude. You run out of breath saying your name.
  • Dave: Yeah, Brian, we can't work our name around your respiratory illnesses.
  • Brian: Even without an inhaler, "Follow Them to the Edge of the Dessert" is too long.
  • Zach: Yeah, but when we get famous, our fans will shorten it to F-T-T-T-E-O-T-D.
  • Lane: Hi.
  • Dave Rygalski: Hi, and hi.
  • Lane: Uh, this will not be the mental image you carry around of me the rest of the week.
  • Dave Rygalski: No, it won't. Hold on, I just saw the back. Yes, it will.
