Quote from Leslie Knope in Summer Catalog
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] "My fellow Pawneeans, yes, it's here. The Parks Department's Summer Catalog has arrived. And for the first time in 20 years, tennis is back. Peruse this wondrous book at your leisure and take advantage of everything this great town has to offer. Time is fleeting, my fellow Pawneeans. Make the most of it while you can. I recently had the honor of spending an afternoon with every living, former parks director, and they taught me a valuable lesson. There's nothing more important than friendship."
Ron Swanson: It's a little flowery.
Leslie Knope: Shut up.

‘Summer Catalog’ Quotes
Quote from Tom
Tom: What are we trying to do with this catalog? We're trying to sell Pawnee on our summer classes. How do we do that? With one perfect, captivating image. April. Modern life. Where are we running? Sometimes what we want is not always where we are. Next slide. Are we alone? Is the real winter inside our hearts? We're all struggling for definition in a world that resists our inquiries.
Leslie Knope: Okay, this isn't gonna work for a number of reasons. One, this is a summer catalog. Two, that was complete gibberish. And three, that child looks like it's abandoned, so basically, boo.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] Okay, I'll tell you. We're putting together the Parks Department summer catalog, and the big surprise is I am going to reunite all the living, former Parks Directors at a picnic, record the whole thing, and then write about it in the welcome letter. It's the biggest catalog of the year. Think of the September issue of Vogue, but it's more important to Pawnee. Mainly because we don't get Vogue here.
Quote from Tom
Tom: [aside to camera] This catalog is basically like an ad for the parks department, and I love ads. I love magazine ads for flavored vodkas, billboards for designer jeans. I TiVo through shows to get to the ads. I love ads.
