April Quote #100
Quote from April in Jerry's Painting
Andy: This is awesomely perfect. Burly just moved in with his rich girlfriend, and we need help with the rent.
April: We have a couple house rules, though.
Ben: Yeah, sure. Of course.
April: You can't use the front door. You have to climb in through the back window. No personal phone conversations. If you ever speak to me in Spanish, please use the formal usted. And no electricity after 6:00 P.M.
Andy: [laughs] She's joking. Okay. You can use as much free electricity as you want. It's free.
April: Couple more rules. If you ever watch a sad movie, you have to wear mascara so we can see whether or not you've been crying. There's no noise allowed on Mondays and no TV after breakfast.
Andy: [laughs] She is lying again.
Ben: She is? 'cause it's hard to tell.
Andy: No. We leave the TV on all day long so burglars think that we're home when we're not, which is my idea that I'm trying to patent. So you want to move in tonight?

‘Jerry's Painting’ Quotes
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] I don't know how to explain it. Every time I look at it, I just think to myself, "What can't that centaur woman do?" Besides ride an escalator and drive a car. Art can be so magnificent.
Quote from Jerry
Jerry: So for my painting, I chose one of my very favorite Greek myths, the centaur goddess Dyaphena slaying a great stag.
Ann: [clears throat] It's, uh, stunning.
Tom: It's breathtaking, Jerry.
Donna: Yeah. Really is.
Jerry: Wow. Thanks, guys.
Ann: Hey, Leslie, you should really come over here and look at Jerry's painting.
Leslie Knope: Oh. Oh, my God. That's me. Is that me?
Jerry: What? [chuckles] No. Oh, jeez, it does look like you.
Leslie Knope: You're just realizing that now?
Tom: That's what you see when you close your eyes at night, Jerry. Topless Leslie glued to a horse. [laughs]
Jerry: Okay, Leslie, I am just so, so sorry. Dyaphena, she is this powerful goddess. And I've been thinking a lot about powerful women. And subconsciously, I painted you. I'm sorry. I'm gonna take it right down.
Leslie Knope: No. Leave it up. I love it.
Quote from Ron Swanson
Ron Swanson: Okay, everyone, shut up! And look at me! Welcome to Visions of Nature. This room has several paintings in it. Some are big. Some are small. People did them, and they are here now. I believe that after this is over, they'll be hung in government buildings. Why the government is involved in an art show is beyond me. I also think it's pointless for a human to paint scenes of nature when they could just go outside and stand in it. Anyway, please do not misinterpret the fact that I am talking right now as genuine interest in art and attempt to discuss it with me further. End of speech.
