Michael Scott: All right, here's the deal you guys. The thing about a practical joke is you have to know when to start and as well as when to stop.
Dwight K. Schrute: Yeah.
Michael Scott: And yeah, Jim this is the time to stop putting Dwight's personal effects into Jell-O.
Jim: Okay. Dwight, I'm sorry, because I have always been your biggest flan.

Quote from Michael Scott

Michael Scott: What is the most important thing for a company? Is it the cash flow? Is it the inventory? Nuh-uh.

We had to let him go. He sucked.

Quote from Michael Scott

Michael Scott: I think I'm a role model here. I think I garner people's respect. The people I respect, heroes of mine, would be Bob Hope... Um... Abraham Lincoln, definitely. Bono. Uh, and probably God, would be the fourth one. And I- I just think all those people really helped the world in so many ways that it's, um, really beyond words. It's really incalculable.
