Quotes

• Dwight: Through superior concentration, I can raise and lower my cholesterol at will.

Pam: Why would you want to raise your cholesterol?

Dwight: So I can lower it.

• Pam: I'm inventing new diseases.

Jim: Oh great.

Pam: So like, let's say that my teeth turn to liquid and then they drip down the back of my throat. What would you call that?
