Leslie Knope Quote #821
Quote from Leslie Knope in The Comeback Kid
Leslie Knope: Oh, goody, you're all here. Now, I know I'm not supposed to talk about my campaign in the office, but last night I've made a decision about who should be my campaign manager. This is a huge job. This is going to require a lot of late night, one-on-one jam sessions with me, and we're going to bounce ideas off of each other, you're going to have to take calls for me, any time, day or night. The person I have chosen is, drum roll please, [imitates drum roll] Ann Perkins! Give it up for Ann! [applause]
Ron Swanson: Good choice.
Ann: Leslie, I don't know the first thing about running a political campaign.
Leslie Knope: Ann, you beautiful tropical fish. You're smart as a whip and you're cool under pressure. You've resuscitated a human heart in your bare hands.
Ann: No, I haven't.
Leslie Knope: You haven't?
Ann: No!
Leslie Knope: You will. You're that good of a nurse.

Quote from Andy
Leslie Knope: Ron, how's the stage coming?
Ron Swanson: Well, since we had to jettison the bulk of the wood, this is the biggest I could make it.
Leslie Knope: Oh, my God. Good lord, what happened to the rest of my face?
Andy: We had to "Jetsons" most of the poster too, but I kind of like it, 'cause windows are the eyes to the house.
Quote from Tom
Tom: [on the phone] Akash, buddy, of course I came to you first. You're the best carpet man in Pawnee. But here's my question. Do your carpets match your drapes? [laughs]
[aside to camera:]
Tom: How do you make any event classy on a budget? Red carpet. My entire apartment is red carpet. On top of that, leading into my bedroom, a second red carpet. Oh, what's this in my shoe? Red carpet insole. Everywhere I go, I'm walking on red carpet.
