Leslie Knope Quote #246
Quote from Leslie Knope in The Camel
Paul: What are the shapes?
Ann: The shapes are awesome, is what they are. You can't handle it.
Paul: No, I actually like them.
Committee Member: Forgive me. Is that Michael Jackson?
Donna: [laughs] Yes. The pride of Indiana.
April: That's right. So, it's relevant.
Committee Member: Who is he carrying?
Leslie Knope: Jesus Greg Kinnear.
Paul: You know, it looks like he's carrying Kinnear into the burning building.
Leslie Knope: Oh, well, that's because he's moonwalking. So, he should be going the other way. That did not occur to me. [April laughs] Sorry. So, there you go. The Spirit of Pawnee.
[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: We didn't win. But neither did anyone else. They realized it was going to cost a ton of money to hire a muralist. So, they're just going to restore the old one. They're changing the title to The Diversity Express. Oh, well.

Quote from Ron Swanson
Ron Swanson: [aside to camera] I'm impressed with Andy. Pulling himself up by his bootstraps. He reminds me of me. I got my first job when I was nine. Worked at a sheet metal factory. In two weeks, I was running the floor. Child labor laws are ruining this country.
Quote from Donna
Donna: So, it's the Last Supper, but with famous people from Indiana. Mmm-hmm. John Mellencamp, Larry Bird, Michael Jackson, uh, David Letterman, Vivica A. Fox. Okay, so, here's where it gets a little dicey. Because there's not that many celebrities from Indiana. So, a NASCAR. Uh, my friend, Becky. Ron Swanson.
Leslie Knope: Donna? Who's the Jesus?
Donna: That would be Greg Kinnear.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Paul: Okay. As everybody knows, The Spirit of Pawnee was defaced again last night.

Leslie Knope: Huh. That's new.
[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: The mural that normally resides here is called The Spirit of Pawnee. And it's very controversial. We've had someone throw acid at it, tomato sauce. Someone tried to stab it once. We really need better security here. We also need better, less-offensive history.
