Ron Swanson Quote #586
Quote from Ron Swanson in Save JJ's
Leslie Knope: I don't know, Ron. I mean, it's been a week. It might not work.
Ron Swanson: It'll work.
Leslie Knope: What if it doesn't? What if we did all that research and handed Gryzzl a fully-formed plan to revitalize an entire neighborhood and build a new National Park, and their board still says no?
Ron Swanson: Then you'll be secure in the knowledge that you gave it your best shot. But I do really think they will go for it.
Leslie Knope: What makes you so confident?
Ron Swanson: A wise woman once told me that whenever you and I team up, good things happen. Also, they called three hours ago, they approved the plan, and asked me to begin drawings for the renovation. [laughs]
Leslie Knope: You jerk. You sat on that news and let me stew here for three hours?
Ron Swanson: Yep.
Leslie Knope: You jerk! We did it! You jerk! We did it!
Ron Swanson: Yep. Congratulations! [Leslie hugs Ron] I do not approve of this.
Leslie Knope: Don't care.

Quote from Ron Swanson
Leslie Knope: Ron? What do you say? Dynamic duo get together one more time to try to save JJ's Diner?
Ron Swanson: I can't think of anything more noble to go to war over than bacon and eggs.
Quote from Ron Swanson
Leslie Knope: All right, everybody, listen up. We're here today because JJ's Diner has been a part of Pawnee for 41 years. And this man right here built that diner from the ground up with his own two hands.
JJ: That's not true.
Leslie Knope: It's called constructing a narrative, JJ. You stick to the breakfast. I'll deal with the politics. So, now, let's hear from a man who knows the value of things staying the same. Ron Swanson. [cheering]
Ron Swanson: I do not like rallies. And based on what I see from this vantage point, I do not like most of you. What I do like is breakfast food. JJ's has very good breakfast food, so it should remain open. Please do not approach me on the street after this event and attempt to talk to me. Our similarities begin and end with this single issue.
Leslie Knope: Ron Swanson.
