Leslie Knope Quote #334
Quote from Leslie Knope in Leslie's House
Phil: So, you don't work for the government and you had no idea that these people were teachers from the local rec center?
Justin: No. I was simply attending a dinner party at my friend's house.
Phil: Why is he here, Miss Knope?
Leslie Knope: That will become clear. Mr. Anderson, could you please describe that evening?
Justin: Well, I had a very pleasant time. And from my perspective, there was no abuse of power with respect to Miss Knope and any of her various guests.
Leslie Knope: Could you define pleasant? Did you have a good time? Did you have a great time? Be specific, and do remember that you're under oath.
Justin: I had an amazing time.
Leslie Knope: But you fell asleep.
Justin: Oh, God. I'm so sorry. You know, look, I'd been given a case the night before, so I had to stay up all night working on it and I didn't want to cancel.
Leslie Knope: You should've told me. I would've rescheduled.
Justin: Are you kidding me? I was looking forward to it. I had an awesome time which had nothing to do with the rec center teachers.
Leslie Knope: No further questions.

Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] I just want this dinner party to go well. There are very few things I've asked for in this world. To build a new park from scratch. To eventually become president. And to one day solve a murder on a train. I think it's fair to add this to the list.

Quote from Ron Swanson
Ron Swanson: [aside to camera] When it comes to government hearings, the only type of witness I enjoy being is a hostile one. That's why I intend to answer every one of their questions with a question.
[later:]
Phil: Were you aware that all of the entertainment and food was provided by rec center teachers?
Ron Swanson: Would I have stayed if I knew that?
Phil: I don't know, would you have?
Ron Swanson: Would you have?
Phil: No. I wouldn't have. Did you hear Leslie make any promises?
Ron Swanson: What constitutes a promise?
Phil: A quid pro quo.
Ron Swanson: Oh. Do you know Latin?
Phil: Okay. Thank you, Ron.
Ron Swanson: Are we done?
