Episode Quotes |

Michael: Nobody should have to go to work thinking, 'Oh this is the place that I might die today.' That's what a hospital is for. An office is for not dying. An office is a place to live life to the fullest, to the max, to... An office is a place where dreams come true. | Michael: No, no, no! You will not die! Stanley! Stanley! You will not die! Stanley! Stanley! Barack is president! You are black, Stanley! I'm gonna give him mouth to mouth. | Pam: We don't normally download films illegally, because we're honest, hard-working people.
Jim: And we don't know how.
Pam: But Andy does, so we have to watch it with him.
Jim: Punishment fits the crime. | Dwight: I just want to say for the record, I did not kill anyone. Stanley was attacked by his own heart. And he should be released from the hospital and back in the office in a couple days. | Michael: Okay... I think that thing is on the fritz. Ah, Oscar, would you reach over and touch his thing? That's what HE said! Right guys, 'cause of gay? | Andy: I am not insightful enough to be a movie critic. Hmm... maybe I could be a food critic. These muffins taste bad. Hmm, or an art critic. That painting is bad. | Michael: Boom! Roasted! |

Rose: Okay. Well, a good trick is to pump to the tune of 'Stayin' Alive' by the Bee Gees. Do you know that song?

Angela is doing a parody of Jeff Foxworthy's comedy routine, "You Might be a Redneck." | Kelly: I have made a list of people that I would make out with before I would make out with Michael Scott: a turtle, a fridge, anybody from the warehouse, a woodchipper, Kevin, a candle, and Lord Voldemort.
Lord Voldemort is the villain from the Harry Potter series of novels, written by J.K. Rowling. | Andy: (singing and accompanying himself on his guitar) What I hate about you, you really suck as a boss... You're the laziest, jerkiest, and you're dumber than applesauce... We're stuck listening to you all day... Stanley tried to die just to get away, heeey, well it's true... That's what I hate about you.... That's what I hate about you. Yeah...
Andy is singing a parody of the song, "What I Like About You," by the band, The Romantics. It was a radio hit in 1979. | Michael: Jim, you're 6'11" and you weigh ninety pounds... Gumby has a better body than you.
