the office characters last words
Michael Scott: “I feel like all my kids grew up and then they married each other. It’s every parent’s dream.”
Dwight Schrute: “Have I gotten along with my subordinates? Let’s see. My supplier relations rep, Meredith Palmer, is the only person I know who knows how to properly headbang to Motorhead. Oscar Martinez, my accountant, is now godfather to my son. Angela Schrute, my former accountant, is now my wife. My top salesman, Jim Halpert, was best man at my wedding, and office administrator, Pamela Beesly-Halpert, is my best friend. So, yes, I’d say I have gotten along with my subordinates.”
Andy Bernard: “I spent so much of my time here at Dunder Mifflin thinking about my old pals, my college a cappella group. The weird thing is now, I’m exactly where I wanna be - I got my dream job at Cornell - and I’m still just thinking about my old pals. Only now they’re the ones I made here. I wish there was a way to know you’re in the good old days before you’ve actually left them.”
Oscar Martinez: “You take something ordinary… a piece of paper. It’s not much, but, if you see it in the right way…and that’s what you did with this documentary.”
Erin Hannon: “How did you do it? How did you capture what it was really like? How we felt, and how we made each other laugh, and how we got through the day… how did you do it?”
Darryl Philbin: “Everyday when I came into work, all I wanted to do was leave. So why in the world does it feel so hard to leave right now?”
Kevin Malone: “If there is one thing that I have learned through this whole experience, it’s that if you film anybody long enough, they’re going to do something stupid. It’s only human natural.”
Phyllis Vance: “I’m happy that this was all filmed, so I can remember everyone and what we did. I worked for a paper company all these years and never wrote anything down.”
Meredith Palmer: “I just feel lucky that I got a chance to share my crummy story with anyone out there who thinks they’re the only one to take a dump in a paper shredder. You’re not alone, sister. Let’s get a beer sometime.”
Creed Bratton: “It all seems so very arbitrary. I applied for a job at this company because they were hiring. I took a desk at the back because it was empty. But, no matter how you get there or where you end up, human beings have this miraculous gift to make that place home. Let’s do this.”
Jim Halpert: “I sold paper at this company for twelve years. My job was to speak to clients on the phone about quantities and types of copier paper. Even if I didn’t love every minute of it, everything I have I owe to this job…this stupid, wonderful, boring, amazing job.”
Pam Halpert: “I thought it was weird when you picked us to make a documentary. But, all in all, I think an ordinary paper company like Dunder Mifflin was a great subject for a documentary. There’s a lot of beauty in ordinary things. Isn’t that kinda the point?”
