Kelly Bishop: Emily Gilmore

Quotes 

• Emily : You took that girl and completely shut us out of your life.

  Lorelai : You wanted to control me.

  Emily : You were still a child.

  Lorelai : I stopped being a child the minute the strip turned pink, okay? I had to figure out how to live. I found a good job.

  Emily : As a maid. With all your brains and talent.

  Lorelai : I worked my way up. I run the place now. I built a life on my own with no help from anyone.

  Emily : Yes, and think of where you would have been if you'd accepted a little help, hmm? And where Rory would have been. But no, you were always too proud to accept anything from anyone.

  Lorelai : Well, I wasn't too proud to come here to you two begging for money for my kid's school, was I?

  Emily : No, you certainly weren't. But you're too proud to let her know where you got it from, aren't you? Well, fine, you have your precious pride and I have my weekly dinners. Isn't that nice? We both win.
