Leslie Knope Quote #1513
Quote from Leslie Knope in 2017
Trevor Nelsson: [on TV] Good evening. I'm attorney Trevor Nelson with the law firm Fwar, Dips, Winshares, Gritt, Babip, Pecota, Vorp, and Eckstein. Legal counsel to the Newport family. Here to announce that the Newport family trust has narrowed the search to two final candidates. The Gryzzl Corporation and the National Park Service.
Leslie Knope: Okay. I'm in the game. All I have to do is convince them that it's better taking no money than taking $90 million.
Ben: Well, you did convince three unsuspecting toddlers that peas turn into cupcakes in their tummies.
Leslie Knope: I started my career in Pawnee by turning a pit into a cool, little park. And now, I have the chance to give this town a massive, beautiful gift that they can use forever. In the words of Jason Bourne, "This is where it started for me, this is where it ends."
Ben: Yeah, you know, I still think Kevin James was a weird choice for the reboot.
Leslie Knope: Oh, I don't. I think he nailed it.

Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] This land is begging to be a new national park. And it's in my own backyard. This could be my crowning achievement. I could retire. I mean, I wouldn't. I'm gonna work until I'm 100 and then cut back to four days a week. Oh, God, I'm already so bored thinking about that one day off. Maybe I'll go to law school or something.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] That park is my dream. I'm not gonna let it slip away. Who cares if Gryzzl and Ron have more money? I have the most valuable currency in America. A blind, stubborn belief that what I am doing is 100% right.
Quote from Tom
Tom: Who is Tom Haverford? He's a mentor, a lover, a hero. But who is my hero? Simple. It's me. Five years from now.
Janet: Okay, I really only need a correct spelling of your last name.
[aside to camera:]
Tom: You are looking at one of Indiana Business monthly's 35 under 35. I own Pawnee's hottest restaurant, two fast-casual eateries, and the Tommy Chopper. We serve chopped salads out of a decommissioned military helicopter. I'm a mogul now.
