Leslie Knope Quote #1226

Quote from Leslie Knope in Are You Better Off?

Leslie Knope: I am here today to ask you one question. Are you better off now than you were a year ago? Who'd like to start? Uh-oh.
Kathryn Pinewood: Kathryn Pinewood, Pawnee Restaurant Association. This town is not better off. This past year has been a disaster, and this government is hell-bent on stripping away our most basic personal freedoms.
Ben: Okay, counterpoint.
Leslie Knope: Ms. Pinewood, I've never stripped away anyone's freedoms. I simply stopped a restaurant from serving an insane 500-ounce soda to its customers, which only made our citizens healthier. And frankly, I don't see any of those citizens standing up and complaining abo-- [indistinct chatter] Okay. Now, I see them.

Quote from Donna

Leslie Knope: Donna, help me out. What makes Pawnee so great?
Donna: Cost of living is cheap. In about three years, I will have saved enough to pay off my condo in Seattle.
Ben: You have a condo in Seattle?
Donna: Yes, I like the rain and the fish markets.

Quote from April

Leslie Knope: Let's do an exercise. April, what makes Pawnee the best city in the world?
April: Easy. Most murders per capita. The guillotine was invented here. City Hall is run by the walrus mafia.

Quote from Andy

Andy: Good morning, colleagues, co-workers, friends. Everyone feeling normal... today?
[aside to camera:]
Andy: Here's what happened. I left my sweat shirt at Ron's cabin. When I went back to get it, I found this in the trash: Positive pregnancy test. Side note: I accidentally threw my sweat shirt away. That's why I was digging through the trash. Found that too. Pretty cool. So if my science is correct, one of the five women who were at the cabin - Leslie, Donna, Ann, Mona-Lisa, or April - is pregnant! Can't be April. She would've told me. That leaves four suspects. There's only one man for this job: Burt Macklin, FBI. They said I was retired. They said I was too dangerous for the Pawnee Police Department. Turns out they were right... and wrong. Macklin, you son of a bitch.
