Quote from Michael Scott

Michael Scott: Will they throw their hats, you think?
Ryan: What?
Michael Scott: A lot of times, at a school or naval academy, after a rousing speech the crowd will throw its hats high into the air.
Ryan: You understand, nobody's graduating.
Michael Scott: Yeah, I know. I know. I'm just saying, if they did throw their hats, I've got a great line for that. May your hats fly as high your dreams! That was a pretty good line.

Quote from Michael Scott

Ryan: Look, I'm sorry, okay? I was just trying to do my presentation. And, of course I was wrong to suggest that Dunder Mifflin might ever go out of business. But you don't have to fire me.
Michael Scott: Fire you? No, no, no. You are moving to the annex.
Ryan: To the annex? Where Kelly is?
Michael Scott: A good manager doesn't fire people. He hires people and inspires people. People, Ryan. And people will never go out of business.
