Leslie Knope Quote #854
Quote from Leslie Knope in Bowling for Votes
Ben: Okay, here we go. 71% said that you have a strong command of the issues. That is good, but only 33% said they would consider voting for you.
Leslie Knope: Yeah, that's really interesting stuff. Why did that guy say that he wouldn't want to go bowling with me?
Ben: You really have to let that go.
[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: I've never been very good at letting things go. I can't tell you how many times a fun tug-of-war with a dog over a chew toy turned contentious. One of us always ends up mad.

Quote from April
April: [on the phone] Hello, is this Mrs. Gallivan? Well, my name is April, and wouldn't you know it, I'm raising money for a city council candidate I believe in. [cut] No, mira, mira, mira, mira, mira. It's, like, whatever you want. Like, $10. It don't matter. [cut; in Southern accent:] Well, I reckon it's just like grammy Martha told me and my cousins, "You can't eat the biscuits if you don't pay for the flour." [laughs, mouths words]
