Michael Scott Quote #1006

Quote from Michael Scott in Local Ad

Michael Scott: [on the phone] Here is the deal. The ad guys that you sent are locking me in a creative box and sort of ignoring my ideas.
Ryan: That's good. They're creative, you're not.
Michael Scott: I'm creative, Ryan.
Ryan: It's not part of your job. It's like, maybe you can cook, but that doesn't mean you should start a restaurant.
Michael Scott: Well, actually I can't cook, and I am starting a restaurant. "Mike's Cereal Shack." I'm thinking we'll have as many varieties as you can buy in the store.
Ryan: Okay. I'm not really interested in that right now. I'm delegating creativity to creative professionals. It's a different skill set. Look, I wasn't good at sales, right? But I'm good at managing people who do sales.
Michael Scott: Are you? I don't think you're doing such a great job here, suppressing ideas and creativity.

Quote from Jim

Jim: I think it's great that the company's making a commercial. Because not very many people have heard of us. When I tell people that I work at Dunder Mifflin, they think that we sell mufflers, or muffins, or mittens, or... And frankly, all of those sound better than paper, so I let it slide.

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Dwight K. Schrute: I signed up for Second Life about a year ago. Back then my life was so great that I literally wanted a second one. In my second life, I was also a paper salesman, and I was also named Dwight. Absolutely everything was the same, except I could fly.
