Quote from Darryl

Michael Scott: I'm not going to go out and ask for a raise right now. That is ridiculous.
Darryl: Well, when they merged the two branches together, they put you in charge. Okay? And we're shipping more now than we ever have.
Michael Scott: That's true. Yeah, that's true. You got to call your girl and get paid. Show her who wears the pants in the relationship.
Michael Scott: You know what, I should.
Darryl: Yeah, you should.
Michael Scott: I've been a loyal employee for a long time.
Darryl: Fourteen years long.
Michael Scott: You know what, I deserve a bump.
Darryl: Make it happen, Captain.
Michael Scott: I am making it happen, Sergeant.

Quote from Kelly

Kelly: [answering the phone] Dunder Mifflin, customer service. This is Kelly. Oh, yeah, I can totally help you with that. Okay. Let me just get the folder out. Okay, it seems here that you ordered 12,000 reams of paper. Oh, 12 reams?

Quote from Darryl

Darryl: Bring it home now. And don't forget the new black-man phrase I taught you.
Michael Scott: Pippety poppety, give me the zoppety.
Darryl: Yes, sir. Remember that. I'll be right outside if you need me.

Quote from Roy

Roy: I'm so sorry, Pammy. I mean, I wasn't going to do anything, but then I kept thinking about you two together. I just thought you guys were really good friends or maybe he was gay or something. Not that that's wrong.

Quote from Pam

Pam: I'm sorry, too. I just I think that we both made some bad choices.
Roy: So, you going to start dating Halpert then?
Pam: Um. No. No. He has a girlfriend.
Roy: Oh, yeah. Wait a minute, you broke up our wedding for the guy.
Pam: No. There were a lot of reasons.
Roy: What, you're not even going to try to go out with him? I don't get you, Pam.
Pam: I know.

Quote from Michael Scott

Michael Scott: Negotiation is an art. Back and forth. Give and take. And today, both Darryl and I took something. Higher salaries. Win, win, win. But, you know, life is about more than just salary. It's about perks. Like having sex with Jan Michael.

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Andy: Hey, guys, guess who's back? [Dwight pepper sprays Andy, he screams] Oh, God!
[later, Dwight talks to camera as Toby removes all his weapons:]
Dwight K. Schrute: No need to thank me. I'm not a hero. I'm a mere defender of the office. You know who's a real hero? Hiro from Heroes. That's a hero. Also Bono.
