Leslie Knope Quote #776
Quote from Leslie Knope in Smallest Park
Leslie Knope: I mean, he's not even attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony of a park that we made together.
Ann: I'm sorry, Leslie.
Leslie Knope: I'm just freaking out. The only thing we have left is work. And now he doesn't want to work together anymore? What does that all mean?
Ann: [sighs] I think you know what it means.
Leslie Knope: Yeah. I should just drag out that tiny park project for as long as possible so Ben and I can keep working together.
Ann: That's almost exactly the opposite of what I meant.
Leslie Knope: No, what I'll do is I'll get the neighborhood all riled up, and then maybe they'll ask for an environmental impact report-- and then Ben and I will work together for at least another year.
Ann: Leslie, for God's sakes.
Leslie Knope: Good idea, Ann. No, Ann, please, I beg of you. Will you just shut your beautiful pie hole? Just sit there, let me stare at you while you silently support me on this game plan.
Ann: Leslie.
Leslie Knope: Shh. Ann.
Ann: Leslie.
Leslie Knope: Your quiet support means the world to me. As well as your tacit endorsement of all my behaviors.

Ron Swanson: [aside to camera] I value a good education, so I don't want to see Andy waste his time in college. Of all my coworkers, he is one of a small number whom I do not actively root against. Ugh, there I go getting all sappy.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: So, I have about nine things I need to talk to you about. The first is the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Do you know who's bringing scissors? Because I cannot tell you how many ceremonies get derailed when people don't bring scissors.

Leslie Knope: Recently, the last remaining telephone booths in Pawnee were torn down, and on that patch of concrete, I am creating Pawnee's newest tourist attraction: The smallest park in Indiana. The title is currently held by Martin Luther King, Jr. Park in Terryville, but guess what? Terryville sucks old car tires, and so does Martin Luther- No, he does not suck old car tires. He was one of the greatest men in history. I'm sorry. Sometimes I get competitive.
