Leslie Knope Quote #1166
Quote from Leslie Knope in Bailout
Dennis Lerpiss: The reason I love that film is that it's really depressing. Speaking of which, sadly, next month, Pawnee Videodome will be closing its doors. Forever.
Leslie Knope: No!
Dennis Lerpiss: For those of you that have attended our screenings, I want to thank you for your patronage, though I wish you would have rented more movies.
Leslie Knope: Guys, we have to help out Dennis and his business. Everybody rent something, so we can help Dennis. Sir, will you rent something?
Morris: Why would I do that? All movies are online for free. I'm watching Iron Man 2 on my phone right now.
Leslie Knope: Okay, you're not helping. I, for one, am going to rent Finding Nemo.
Dennis Lerpiss: Ooh, we don't carry cartoons. But if you want a film about the ocean, we have a documentary about the brutality of Japan's whaling industry. It's called Tears Of My Blowhole. And it's... It's nauseating.
Leslie Knope: [stammers] I'll just buy some Red Vines.
Dennis Lerpiss: Oh, we only have Japanese slime candy and, um, Bulgarian wheat balls.
Andy: Leslie, seriously, where are we?

Ron Swanson: Capitalism is the only way, Leslie. It moves our country forward. It's what makes America great. And England okay and France terrible.
Quote from Jerry
Ben: Okay, so you're really gonna say no to Ann?
Chris: I care about Ann very deeply, but... I just don't know if I'm cut out to be a dad.
Jerry: You know, Chris, every parent makes mistakes. I mean, lord knows I've made plenty. But it's the small victories that keep you going. When you see your little one take her first step or... or graduate college, oh, my God, it just makes it all worth it. [chuckles] And another thing is if-- If, like-- If I-- [exhales] You know, and then your kid's-- because you're like--vrrrr-- I don't know. And everyone's like, "Oh." [babbles] Oh, I'm sorry, guys. I--no one ever lets me talk this long. I just got lost.
Chris: It was a beautiful point. And very well said, right up until that moment that you started babbling incoherently.
Quote from Chris
Chris: I made everything worse. If Tom were a bag of flour, that flour would never grow up to be a happy, well-adjusted loaf of bread. Much less a bran muffin, which is the highest honor that flour can achieve.
