Quote of the Day

I am calling this my 'Leo McGarry is Awesome' post. Mainly because he is awesome and there are lots of quotes simply cause I'm incapable of making up my mind. :) Oh! And surprise cameo by Lord John Marbury!

Leo McGarry: I am making a mental list of those who are snickering, and even as I speak I am preparing appropriate retribution.

Leo McGarry: I can't believe I didn't commit that piece of arcane information to memory.

Leo McGarry: Dreifort's a Supreme Court Justice, Lionel, so let's speak of him with respect and practice some tolerance for those who disagree with us.
Lionel Tribbey: I believe, as long as Justice Dreifort is intolerant toward gays, lesbians, blacks, unions, women, poor people, and the first, fourth, fifth, and ninth amendments, I will remain intolerant toward him.

Leo McGarry: Little thing called team morale, Josh. You gotta make people feel good about themselves.
[walks into conference room where the staff is waiting to begin Big Block Of Cheese Day] All right! Shut the hell up everybody. I've fired more people than you before breakfast.

Leo McGarry: My generation never got the future it was promised... Thirty-five years later, cars, air travel is exactly the same. We don't even have the Concorde anymore. Technology stopped.
Josh Lyman: The personal computer...
Leo McGarry: A more efficient delivery system for gossip and pornography? Where's my jet pack, my colonies on the Moon?

Lord John Marbury: When we had a particular problem with someone, one solution we would try is to make him a maharajah. That's a kind of a regional king. We would pay him off with an annual tribute and in return he would be loyal to the crown.
Leo McGarry: Lord Marbury, under our constitution the President is not empowered to create maharajahs.
Lord John Marbury: Yes, thank you for clearing that up, Leo. Having been educated at Cambridge and the Sorbonne I am, as you know, exceedingly stupid.
