Isabel Jewell: Laury Palmer

Quotes 

• Mrs. Kraft : Stay for supper, huh, Laury?

  Laury Palmer : Aw, can't. I got a date.

  Mrs. Kraft : Who with?

  Laury Palmer : Danny Jaden.

  Mrs. Kraft : That young squirt? Thought you had a new one.

  Laury Palmer : I have. Wait till you see him.

  Mrs. Kraft : Tell me about him, Laury. What's he like?

  Laury Palmer : Well, this big across the shoulders. He moved my trunk around the other day like it was a cracker box. He's the quiet sort. And yet you get the feeling if you stepped out of line he'd kick your teeth down your throat.

  Mrs. Kraft : Why, ain't that wonderful?

  Laury Palmer : Sure is.

• Laury Palmer : Oh, why not? If you're glad about the divorce, you ought to celebrate. And if you're sad and wanna forget about it, you ought to celebrate. So either way, you ought to celebrate.

• Mrs. Kraft : You know, you ought to put on some meat, Laury. You're so skinny, can't grab hold of you anywhere.

  Laury Palmer : I haven't noticed anybody having any trouble.
