Leslie Knope Quote #1194
Quote from Leslie Knope in Article Two
Garth Blundin: Imagine those who were up against Chewbacca 'cause that's gonna happen. After a beat, Luke says, "Darth Vader was my father, but Ben Kenobi was my master." And he cuts Hannibal Lecter in half.
Leslie Knope: Mr. Blundin, look, the laws I'm trying to get rid of have no more relevance in modern society and they're embarrassing to Pawnee. Repealing them would show that we're changing with the times.
Garth Blundin: You can't just change the charter willy-nilly. You start by casually repealing a couple of "old laws," the next thing you know, your jack-booted storm troopers are kicking in my door and arresting my wife for no reason if I were married.
Leslie Knope: By "jack-booted storm troopers," do you mean the Pawnee Police Department? Hey, Clyde.
Police Officer: Hi, Leslie. Good Danish today.

Quote from Ron Swanson
Ron Swanson: [aside to camera] Normally, if given a choice between doing something and nothing, I'd choose to do nothing. But I will do something if it helps someone else do nothing. I'd work all night if it meant nothing got done.
Quote from Ann
Ann: JJ's diner put an old waffle iron up for auction. It's the perfect breakfast day gift for Leslie.
Donna: "Breakfast day"?
[aside to camera:]
Ann: Leslie has anniversaries for everything. "Zoo day," first time we went to the zoo together. "Double date day," it was the first time we went on a double date. "Daniel Day-Lewis day." "Talk-like-a-pirate day." "Talk-like-a-Pittsburgh-pirate day," which why and how? This calendar was last year's calendar day present celebrating the first time she ever bought me a calendar.
Quote from Tom
Garth Blundin: Yeah, nothing warms the blood like an old whirly-bout with the old butter-gyre, eh, Leslie?
Leslie Knope: Indeed. Man, this guy's tougher than I thought.
Tom: I don't know how either of you guys are doing this. One time my refrigerator stopped working, I didn't know what to do. I just moved.
