Quote from Leslie Knope

Leslie Knope: I would just like to point out that Kim Terlando stole all of my jokes for the Pawnee Correspondents' Lunch, and they were great jokes. So I spent the whole night writing new ones. Lucky for you, let's get... started. I'm very excited to be here. You know who else is excited to be here? Neve Campbell. [as Campbell] What a great party... of five.
Donna: All right, thank you, guys.

Quote from Andy

Ben: The point is, I could use someone to help me at the foundation as a part-time assistant but also an idea man.
Andy: Might I suggest Tom? He loves ideas. Also a man.
Ben: What-- No, Andy, I've already chosen the person. And it is not Tom...
Andy: Then who is it?
Ben: Well, he is, uh, sitting right here in this courtyard.
Andy: That guy? Do you even know him?
Ben: Oh, my God, Andy, it's you. I think you may have a knack for charitable giving. Will you come work for me? [Andy gets up] Uh-oh. What's happening? [Andy hugs Ben] Oh.
