Leslie Knope Quote #1359
Quote from Leslie Knope in New Beginnings
Leslie Knope: Now, Stu, I know that you're thinking about retiring, and I am here to ask you to reconsider. What do you say? Keep that Lafayette Park stand open, pumpin' out the stew like you do.
Stu: I don't know. I'm looking forward to spending time with my wife, working on some new hobbies. I was thinking about getting into bisques.
Leslie Knope: Stu, you have been a staple in the parks department system for years. Retirement is for the birds. You're gonna be so bored. I'm gonna say this because you need to hear it. Screw bisque.
Stu: That makes a lot of sense.
Leslie Knope: Yeah.
Stu: What now? What do I do?
Leslie Knope: Well, we're gonna need to convince the business council to keep you around, but that's not for you to worry about. I'll take care of it. You just keep on stewin' what you stew.

Quote from Tom
Leslie Knope: I know you were excited to get in front of the committee and rip it, but in the spirit of teamwork, I unilaterally decided to bring Stu out of retirement. So pressure's off.
Tom: What? I spent a lot of time on this.
Leslie Knope: Doin' what, putting mousse in your hair?
Tom: It's a gel-based serum. Second of all, who uses mousse still? Oh, God. Leslie. Let's put our differences aside for a second. Friend to friend, do you still use mousse?
Leslie Knope: No, I use the juicy space thing. Whatever you do.
