Leslie Knope Quote #958
Quote from Leslie Knope in Bus Tour
Reporter: Leslie, can you comment on Bobby's father Nick Newport?
Leslie Knope: Nick Newport has been intimidating and bullying and poisoning this town for years. Frankly, he's a real jerk, and if he thinks he can buy this election for his son, he's wrong.
Reporter: Sorry, I meant can you comment on Nick Newport dying earlier today?
Leslie Knope: He died? I... Sad.
Reporter: Is that your official statement? "I sad"?
Leslie Knope: No, my official statement is that is overall, a bummer. Oof. And--and together we can build a better Pawnee. [Gloria Estefan's "Get on Your Feet" starts playing] No, this is isn't the time. No, guys.

Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] We've come so far. I want this so bad, I can taste it. When I close my eyes, I can picture the flash of the cameras at my swearing in. And I can hear the sound of the applause when I take my oath. And I can see in the crowd president Obama smiling at me. He made it. I didn't think he would come, but he made it. Hey, buddy.
Quote from Andy
Andy: A few days ago, on a routine campaign stop in downtown Pawnee, one Leslie Knope - pause - was attacked - play - by a pie. Luckily, it only hit Jerry, so no damage was done. Play. The only evidence we have is a video shot by - pause - my wife, April Ludgate. This is Burt Macklin's greatest assignment yet. If you are watching, perpetrator, just know that you are still at large.
Quote from Chris
Chris: [aside to camera while cycling] This has been a difficult year for me, romantically. Millicent Gergich, Ann Perkins, Andy's professor-- lots of disappointment, but if I keep my body moving and my mind occupied at all times, I will avoid falling into a bottomless pit of despair.
