Keep it up, and even if you do get my job you'll never run this place . You'll die in that corner office, a midlevel executive with a little bit of hair who women go home with out of pity. Want to know why? Because no one will like you. |
| Harry Crane |

Draper? Who knows anything about that guy? No one's ever lifted that rock. He could be Batman for all we know. |
| Pete Campbell |
|
Why's it so hard for you people to give me anything? |
| Pete's dad | We gave you everything. We gave you your name. What have you done with it? |

This device isn't a spaceship, it's a time machine. It goes backwards, and forwards...it takes us to a place where we ache to go again. It's not called the wheel, it's called the carousel. It lets us travel the way a child travels - around and around, and back home again, to a place where we know we are loved. |

I like sleeping alone, stretching out like a skydiver. Cool patches to roll onto. I just appreciate it more. |
| Joan Harris |
|
I really think this vending machine is a trouble maker. |
| Lane Pryce |
|
I think it's been a great success. Revenue is climbing. I was gonna suggest we get a sandwich machine. We'd probably get 40% of the work force keeping busy through lunch. |
| Joan Harris |
|
Or we'd end up with a bunch of fat secretaries who think the whole afternoon is lunch time because there's always another sandwich around the corner. |

(Enters room) Well, it's been a pleasure working with you all. I wish you the best of luck. (After resigning from his position) |
| Stan Rizzo |
|
I didn't think they'd start with him. |
| Heinz representative | Humor worked with the pickles, but pickles are funny. The way beans are funny... we can't use that, we have to fight it actually. |
