4. “Intensity: Give 100%. 110% is impossible. Only idiots recommend that.”

Ron Swanson, Go Big or Go Home. Season 3: episode 1.

5. “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. I read that on a can of lemonade. I like to think it applies to life.”

Andy Dwyer, The Bubble. Season 3: episode 15.

8. “No matter what I do, literally nothing bad can happen to me.”

Leslie Knope, Ben’s Parents. Season 5: episode 6.

11. “Treat yo self”
