Quotation Marks – 30 Rock, Parks & Rec, Glee & more

Take a look back at the week in quotes, as the Clique offers up our favorites of the week. If we missed yours, share it in the comments!

Community

“We came so close to having one class that wasn’t all about them.” — Vicki
“Remember when they all took that fishing trip on St. Patrick’s Day?” — Neil
“God, that was a good week.” — Starburns

“So have you considered natural childbirth?” – Britta
“Are you kidding me? I’ll take whatever they’ve got. An epidural is a proper Christian woman’s only chance to get to get wrecked.” – Shirley

“I didn’t even know there was a difference between North and South Korean barbecue! I mean, MASH lasted longer than that war, get over it, am I right?” – Dean Pelton

Parks & Recreation

“Okay, everyone, shut up and look at me! Welcome to Visions of Nature. This room has several paintings in it. Some are big. Some are small. People did them, and they are here now. I believe that after this is over, they’ll be hung in government buildings. Why the government is involved in an art show is beyond me. I also think it’s pointless for a human to paint scenes of nature when they could just go outside and stand in it. Anyway, please do not misinterpret the fact that I am talking right now as genuine interest in art and attempt to discuss it with me further. End of speech.” – Ron

“I’m both repulsed and impressed by her Lady Macbethian ways. A Latina Eve Harrington. Okay, if you’re going to be gay you simply must know who that is.” — Kurt to Karofsky when learning of Santana’s plan

So — [puts medal down] here. I don’t want it anymore.” — Payson, to Sasha

“You know, I could have gotten them there.” — Darby, to Sasha
“Perhaps, in time. But we don’t have time.” — Sasha
“And you’re so sure you can get them to Worlds, where I couldn’t?” — Darby
“Yes.” — Sasha, blowing Darby off

“When I read what you wrote, it wasn’t … so much a peek into your soul as it was a question of how you’d seen mine.” — Damon, to Kaylie

“I’m done holding back / I dropped the act / I was keeping it together for too long / I’m through running scared / From what’s in there / It’s not perfect / But it’s me” — Damon and Kaylie’s song

“Excuse me, miss, how much is a lap dance? I’m a little light on cash but I have a PayPal account.” – Liz, trying to lift Tracy’s spirits
