Quotes 

• Michael Scott : Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me.

• Michael Scott : [acting tough after beating Dwight in a fight]  You talking to me? You talking to me? "Raging Bull." Pacino.

  [elated] 

  Michael Scott : Oh, I want that footage, I want it. I need it.

• Jim Halpert : Just have Dwight punch you.

  Michael Scott : Oh, yeah.

  [scoffs] 

  Michael Scott : Well, that would be kind of worthless because I know a ton of 14-year-old girls who can kick his ass.

  Jim Halpert : You know a ton of 14-year-old girls?

  Dwight Schrute : What belt are they?

• Michael Scott : I'm friends with everybody in this office. We're all best friends. I love everybody here. But sometimes your best friends start coming into work late, and start having dentist appointments that aren't dentist appointments, and that is when it's nice to let them know that you could beat them up.

• Michael Scott : Oh, hey, Karate Kid. The Hilary Swank version.

  Michael Scott : Hey, Ryan, this is your girlfriend and I'm mad.

• Michael Scott : And after that, nobody ever messed with the Damn Rascals ever again.

  Michael Scott : You're a jet?

• Michael Scott : Just hit me, you'll see.

  Jim Halpert : I can't, 'cause I just got a manicure, so...

  Michael Scott : Oh, queer!

  [remembers he's on camera] 

  Michael Scott : Eye... "Queer Eye." That's a good show. Important show.

• Toby Flenderson : We want to go home.

  Michael Scott : Well, you don't even have anybody to go home to Toby.
