Quote from Leslie Knope in Jerry's Retirement
Ben: Well, Jerry was never really the type to rise above mediocrity or to it.
Leslie Knope: That's what I thought, but when he started, he had a lot of dreams and goals. I mean, look at his original entry paperwork. He wanted to meet the mayor, have a building named after him. I just can't let Jerry leave here with nothing and go home to an empty life.

Leslie Knope: Mac and cheese pizza?
Ben: Yeah.
Leslie Knope: You're making that?
Ben: Yeah.
Leslie Knope: [gasps; kisses Ben]

Quote from Chris

Chris: Yes, I get that a lot.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] I am putting together a scrapbook commemorating my first year on the city council. This year whizzed by so fast. There was so much more I wanted to do. But time is the relentless and cruel enemy of the devoted civil servant. It's actually one of the sub-titles of my scrapbook. Probably would've got more stuff done if I hadn't spent so much time brainstorming scrapbook titles.
Quote from Tom

Tom: No, everything's fine.
April: Well, I guess that settles who the new Jerry is.
Tom: No, it doesn't! I barely even said it wrong.

Tom: Stop it! [laughter]
[aside to camera:]
Tom: This is how it begins. The next "Jerry." One screwed-up sentence, and 30 years later, I'm wearing aquamarine sweater vests and listening to Bonnie Raitt and The Da Vinci Code on my iPod. It's already started.
