Quote from Stanley
Stanley: Oh, yes, I will work out today. I will work out a way to avoid running for a stupid cause.
Quote from Kelly
Michael Scott: Kelly, you are Hindu. So you believe in Buddha.
Kelly: That's Buddhists.
Michael Scott: Are you sure?
Kelly: No.
Quote from Michael Scott
Michael Scott: A woman shouldn't have to be hit by a car to learn that she may have rabies. But that is where we are in America. And that does not sit right with me. And that is why I'm hosting a fun run race for the cure for rabies. To raise awareness of the fact that there is a cure for rabies. A disease that has been largely eradicated in the U.S. But not very many people know that.
Quote from Pam
Pam: So I closed the door but the image of his...
Jim: Baguette.
Pam: Dangling participle is still burned in my eyes.
Jim: I can imagine.
Quote from Michael Scott
Kevin: You ca not make me run. It is not a real charity. It's stupid, Michael and I'm not gonna do it.
Michael Scott: All right, all right.
Kevin: You didn't run for me when I thought I had skin cancer.
Michael Scott: I know that you're probably scared of people seeing your fat legs in shorts.
Kevin: No.
Michael Scott: Okay. Well, back in olden times, a large, fat person like this was a person of power. A person who had money, who could buy food. A person of respect, like the regional manager of the day. Whereas someone athletic and trim like myself was somebody who worked in the fields, and I was a peasant.
Quote from Jim
Jim: One day Michael came in complaining about a speed bump on the highway. I wonder who he ran over then.
Quote from Angela
Pam: Angela? Are you coming?
Angela: I can't. Sprinkles is sick.
[aside to camera:]
Angela: She's been sick for some time. Thank you for asking. No one asks about Sprinkles.
[back:]
Angela: I have to give her her meds, I have to pet her. And who will she eat lunch with?
Pam: Can't your other cats keep her company?
Angela: There's bad blood. Jealousies, cliques.
Quote from Michael Scott
Michael Scott: Ugh. I hate hospitals. In my mind, they are associated with sickness.
Quote from Angela
Michael Scott: Alright, let's just go around the room, and tell me what you believe in.
Stanley: I'm a ... Catholic.
Michael Scott: Okay.
Darryl: Presbyterian.
Pam: Oh, me too.
Darryl: For real?
Pam: Same religion.
Phyllis: I'm a Lutheran, and bob is a Unitarian. It keeps things spicy.
Angela: That's why we're cursed.
Quote from Andy
Andy: I'm petrified of nipple chafing. Once it starts, is a vicious circle. You have sensitive nipples, they chafe. So they become more sensitive. So they chafe more. So I take precautions.
