Many people will fight you if you say that Michael Scott was not the best manager in the world. The Office was an amazing show and has a cult-like following. Today we will count down the 10 best Michael Scott quotes of all times.
1. “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. – Wayne Gretzky” – Michael Scott
We will start the countdown with this gem of knowledge. All hockey fans get a big smile when they see this one. Let’s give Michael some credit he stole knowledge from a legend.
2. “Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject so you know you are getting the best possible information.”
This quote really explains a lot of the things Michael says. If he is using Wikipedia as a trusted source, it is not as shocking that he says all this stuff.
3. “Society teaches us that having feelings and crying is bad and wrong. Well, that’s baloney, because grief isn’t wrong. There’s such a thing as good grief. Just ask Charlie Brown.”
Michael was woke before most people. He understood how dangerous toxic masculinity was and how much we can all learn from Charlie Brown. Michael knew Charlie Brown was a good man.
4. “The worst thing about prison was the Dementors. They were flying all over the place and they were scary and they’d come down and they’d suck the soul out of your body and it hurt!”
No Michael Scott count down would be complete without a quote from Prison Mike. I guess he spent time in the dungeon at Hogwart.
5. “You know what they say. Fool me once, strike one, but fool me twice…strike three.”
This quote always gives me George W Bush vibes. Maybe Michaels was sharing the cocaine with Bush before he said this.
6. “I feel like all my kids grew up and then they married each other. It’s every parent’s dream.”
Nothing makes a father prouder than incest!
7. “Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me.”
You know you feel him with this quote. Same… Michael… Same!
8. “Sometimes I’ll start a sentence and I don’t even know where it’s going. I just hope I find it along the way.”
Michael Scott might have had ADHD. Okay, Michael Scott Deffinettly had ADHD.
9. “You cheated on me?…. When I specifically asked you not to?”
Michael only asked you to do one thing. You had one job!
10. “That’s what she said.”
This will always be the ultimate Michael Scott quote. You can not think of Michael without it popping into your head.
