Mark Quote #28
Leslie Knope: Okay. Here we go.
Mark: Okay. So, it is an old man feeding pigeons in a park. Uh... The spirit of Pawnee? Maybe?
Tom: You got to be kidding me.
Ann: How is that better than my park scene?
April: It isn't. And that's saying something.
Donna: And who's the man? Is he famous? Is it Martin Landau?
Mark: Look, I have no dog in this fight. I'm just saying that this will win.
Tom: It's nothing. It's mush. There's not even one shape in there, Mark. Where are the shapes?
Mark: I'm not saying that this is any good. I'm saying that this will win. It's mass appeal. It's like what motels put up, and it hangs there for years, and no one ever throws acid at it.
Ron Swanson: Mmm. Who did this? I like it.
Ann: Seriously? I mean... Sorry.
Ron Swanson: Yeah. It comforts me. That'll win.

[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: The mural that normally resides here is called The Spirit of Pawnee. And it's very controversial. We've had someone throw acid at it, tomato sauce. Someone tried to stab it once. We really need better security here. We also need better, less-offensive history.
