Leslie Knope Quote #839
Quote from Leslie Knope in Campaign Ad
Bobby Newport: [on campaign video] I'm Bobby Newport. My family owns nine square miles of land in this town. And isn't my family what this town's really about? Vote Bobby Newport for city council.
Ann: That guy is everywhere.
Donna: I am not complaining.
Leslie Knope: Well, we have to find a way to beat him. And luckily Ben is going to announce the most amazing campaign strategy ever thought of in the entire history of western democracy. Go, Ben, here's your great idea. We're all ready for it. And start.
[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: I'm running for office. I'm surrounded by my friends. My campaign manager and I are in love. This is exactly how I dreamed it would be when I was a kid. Except I wasn't 70 points behind and my campaign manager was Mr. Belvedere.

Quote from Andy

April: Oh, my God, you drove us here.
Quote from Andy
April: Hey, Ann, are you still a nurse or did they fire you because you slept with all the doctors?
Ann: You wanna try that again?
April: Hey, Ann, are you still a nurse? Because Andy's not feeling well.
Ann: What's wrong, Andy?
Andy: Just got a headache. And I'm seeing double. And I got a song stuck in my head, and my teeth hurt. Also I'm hungry.
Ann: Okay, well, some of those things are symptoms and some of them are just being a person.
Quote from Tom
Ben: It's not a negative ad. We're stating facts about him, and, yeah, they happen to be negative because he's a bonehead.
Leslie Knope: Well, I wanted to run an ad that highlights the good things about me, not the bad things about somebody else. Tom, you are our communications director. Weigh in here.
Tom: Leslie, I love your idea. I also love your idea. Two great ideas, two great people.

Tom: I don't know which idea's better, but I do know I'll end up on the winning side. When I bet on horses, I never lose. Why? I bet on all the horses.
