Leslie Knope Quote #473
Quote from Leslie Knope in Freddy Spaghetti
Leslie Knope: I can't stand this government shutdown! I can't stand this budget crisis. But what I can't stand Is they're canceling Freddy Spaghetti. You know everything. What should I do about this?
Mark: I don't know, Leslie. Why don't you see a movie or go shopping or try--
Leslie Knope: Wait a minute, what are you doing? What's happening?
Mark: Um... You know, they offered me a buyout, and I took it. And so now I work for Norton Construction.
Leslie Knope: [knocks files out of Mark's hands] Sorry, I know I shouldn't have done that.
Mark: That's okay.
Leslie Knope: How could you quit?
Mark: You know, not everyone has your enthusiasm for this work.
Leslie Knope: You know, I guess I've been mispronouncing your name all these years. Mark Brendana-quits.
