11 Iconic Quotes From "The Office"
NBC

" The Office" is, arguably, one of the best shows ever created (in my opinion). It's full of funny and sometimes surprisingly thoughtful quotes. I thought I'd compile a list of some of the most iconic "The Office" quotes to brighten up your day. And hopefully make you smile.

1. Some words to the haters:

"Everyone said to Vincent Van Gogh, 'You can't be a great painter. You only have one ear.' You know what he said? I can't hear you." -Michael Scott

2. When Kelly taught us that it's the little things that are the most romantic:

3. When Stanley made us question trying to get out of jury duty:

4. When Michael trusted technology a little too much and reiterated how we all feel when Google Maps fails us:

"Ryan thinks that technology is the answer. Well, guess what? I just drove my car into a lake." -Michael Scott

5. When Jim made us all swoon with how much he loved Pam:

6. When Dwight was all of us trying to tell our crush how we feel:

7. Kevin making us realize we're all the same when Taco Tuesday comes around:

8. When Michael taught us that sometimes you've just got to tell it like it is:

9. When Dwight gave some solid advice about making good choices:

"Before I do anything I ask myself, 'Would an idiot do that?' If the answer is yes, I do not do that thing." -Dwight K. Schrute

10. When Pam got deep with us:

11. When Michael made us realize that maybe we can have the best of both worlds:

So, there you have it––some very quotable moments from "The Office." With all this rebooting of old TV shows lately, this is one I really wouldn't mind coming back. But until that day comes, I'll just be watching old episodes on Netflix.

Bonus: Here's a perfect quote to describe me trying to choose between all the quotes to put in this article.
