Seven years ago, Tina Fey introduced a strong relatable female character who enjoys food and television more than almost anything else in the world. Whether high-fiving a million angels or simply high-fiving herself, Liz Lemon frequently delivered one-liners that left us all lizzing (her combination of laughing and whizzing).

Based on her time working at Saturday Night Live, Fey’s celebrated comedic masterpiece has been nominated for 97 Emmys during its seven-year run and the final episode will air on NBC this Thursday at 8 p.m. EST.

To say goodbye to 30 Rock and the woman who taught us all about working on our night cheese, we collected our favorite Liz Lemon quotes over the past seven seasons.
