Quote from Leslie Knope in Galentine's Day
Leslie Knope: So to conclude our Galentine's Day breakfast, it is time for the greatest story ever told.
Ann: What's the story?
Leslie Knope: It's the most romantic story ever. It makes The Notebook look like Saw V. Go, Mom, go.
Marlene Knope: It was 1968. I was 18 and our family went on a vacation to Bermuda. And on the first day, I went for a swim in the ocean. And I got caught in a very strong current. [Leslie gasps]
Ann: You've heard this story before, right?
Leslie Knope: Yes, but the drama.
Marlene Knope: The next thing I felt were two very powerful arms whisking me to safety. And he looked down at me and he said, "Are you okay?" And I looked up at him and I said, "I am now."
[later:]
Leslie Knope: So they sneak out to meet each other and walk on the beach. And two weeks later, he asked her to marry him and move to Illinois. But her parents thought she was too young, so she said no. And then they lost touch, and a few years later she met my dad.

Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: If you look inside your bags, you will find a few things. A bouquet of hand-crocheted flower pens... A mosaic portrait of each of you made from the crushed bottles of your favorite diet soda, and a personalized 5,000-word essay of why you are all so awesome.
[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: What's Galentine's Day? Oh, it's only the best day of the year. Every February 13th, my lady friends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home and we just come and kick it breakfast style. Ladies celebrating ladies. It's like Lilith Fair minus the angst, plus frittatas.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] How often do you get to reunite soul mates? What if I told you that you could reunite Romeo and Juliet? Or Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston? Oh, Jen. I really want you to be happy. Stay away from John Mayer.
