You Can Be a Winner in the Game of Life
From Elana:
"I told them, 'Elana, get a boyfriend!'"
"Cut loose in New York!"
"Your old bubbie will teach you a game. You have to lay low and let him come to you. It works with everything."
"Like my Greek Fat Wedding?"
"I never thought I'd be where I'd be today, and I don't mean the condo."

Young and Cute
From Elana:
"I didn't know where look, honey. Everyone looked cute."
"It's better to be hip than to be an old biddy. I don't like old biddies."

Party Central
From Elana:
"I want you to dance. Let yourself go a little."
"The future is not ours to see."
Bubbie: "They asked about you. They want to come to a chusuna. You know what a chusuna is?"
Elana: "Yeah, a wedding."
Bubbie: "They only want to come to yours."
"When you go to your birthday and have a drink of wine or whatever you like, I want you to really let it...have a good time."
"You can't translate it, it's so good."

"Honey, you get it?"
From Elana:
"I can't tell you apart. I'm not in my head."
"So they can tear you apart. You have the whole week." (On my being home for Pesach and being able to go back and forth between houses)
"Whatever. As the kids say all the time. Whaaatever."
"She's got an aristocratic beauty. She's not a hot-fly-by-night. Just like you." On Sofia Coppola. I'm like Sofia Coppola?
