Michael Scott: What is the most inspiring thing I ever said to you?

Student: Sir, as a company that primarily distributes paper, how have you adapted your business model to function in an increasingly paperless world?
Michael Scott: We can't overestimate the value of computers. Yes, they are great for playing games and forwarding funny e-mails, but real business is done on paper, okay? Write that down.

Kevin Malone: I am a hero.

Ryan Howard: It wasn't personal.
Michael Scott: Business is always personal. It's the most personal thing in the world. Ryan Howard: When we get back to the office, pack your things.

Michael Scott: Fire you? No, no, no. You are moving to the annex.
Ryan Howard: To the annex?! Where Kelly is?
Michael Scott: A good manager doesn't fire people. He hires people and inspires people. People, Ryan. And people will never go out of business.

Michael Scott: What?
