Leslie Knope Quote #59
Quote from Leslie Knope in Boys' Club
Tom: [to camera] So, we've been called out to this hiking trail because there's some reports that some teenagers are digging bags of dog poop out of the trash and having dog poop fights.
Leslie Knope: [to camera] I don't believe it. [to Tom] Oh, my God. It's real.
Tom: Uh... Yeah, I'm not gonna go deal with this. I'm leaving.
Leslie Knope: Hey! Hey! Hello? Boys! I am Leslie Knope. I work for the Department of Parks and Recreation. Okay, all right. Cool it! Okay.
Boy: Get her shoes!
Leslie Knope: No! That's disgusting! What are you doing? Help! Help! Help! Tom! Tom! No! Smells so bad! Why would you think this was fun? Really? Oh, really? Really? Oh, hey! Hey! You like it? Boom! Okay, here we go. Who wants it? Whoo, missed it! Yeah! Actually, this is a little fun. This is fun.
Boy: Get her hair!
Leslie Knope: Oh.

‘Boys' Club’ Quotes
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] Good morning. Last night, in a foolish attempt to infiltrate a boys' club, I violated the government employee ethics code of the state of Indiana. I have always tried to live my life in an ethical way, and last night, I failed. I realize I have let down every female public official in America, and I would like to apologize to them, right now, individually, and in alphabetical order. Michele Bachmann, Republican, Minnesota. I am sorry. Tammy Baldwin, Democrat, Wisconsin. I'm so sorry, Tammy. Melissa Bean.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] Politics is full of boys' clubs, formal and informal. Behind me are all the members of the city council over the past 30 years. And every day, as a woman, I have to walk past this wall of men. It can be very upsetting. Especially because of that guy. No matter what direction I move, he's always staring at my chest. Hmm. See?
Quote from Ron Swanson
Ron Swanson: So, after all that, it's really not that bad. You're gonna get a letter in your file.
Leslie Knope: Ron, I just wanted to say thank you, so...
Ron Swanson: Don't worry about it.
[aside to camera:]
Ron Swanson: No, I didn't do it for Leslie. I did it because I hate bureaucracy. My idea of a perfect government is one guy, who sits in a small room at a desk, and the only thing he's allowed to decide is who to nuke. The man is chosen based on some kind of IQ test, and maybe also a physical tournament, like a decathlon. And women are brought to him, maybe, when he desires them.
