Helen Jordan: Anyway, so the police came and looked in her freezer and found baggies filled with the doorman's genitals. Mona: I use baggies. Joy Jordan: Me too. Helen Jordan: Everyone uses baggies, that's why we can all relate to this crime. Don't y...
Kaplan: I don't like it any more than you do, Reed, but listen. Sgt. Reed: You listen to me, you asshole! You're talking about shutting down a major metropolitan police force! Without cops, this city would tear itself apart!
Ángela: It's nearly 2 A.M. and we're still sealed in this building that we came to with the firemen earlier this evening, to assist an elderly woman who later attacked a policeman and a fireman. They're both in critical condition. The police won't l...
Marv: [voiceover] Goldie's dead. I've been framed for murder. The cops are in on it. Cop: [knocks on door] Open up! Police! Marv: I'll be right out. [flicks lighter shut] Marv: [Door is blown off its hinges, taking several cops with it]
Moreno: So tell me something. How long have you been a pig, I mean, a police officer? Jake Hoyt: I've been a pig for 19 months. Moreno: 19 months? You like it? Jake Hoyt: I should have been a fireman.
Police/gangster films always have a huge following and huge audience because of the power, glamour, and certain fantasy aspect they have to them. When people watch movies, they like to fantasize being in a surreal world, and sometimes a criminal worl...
I've always been kind of a mutt creatively. I started off in journalism, and I've actually done more police and procedural shows than I've ever done science fiction shows. I was on 'Murder She Wrote,' I was on 'Walker, Texas Ranger,' I was on 'Jake a...
I'm interested in Scotland now and then, how it's changed. I want to get the reader to think about that by thinking about something from the past. How has society changed, how has policing changed, have we changed philosophically, psychologically, cu...
Paul Smecker: Oh, isn't that beautiful? All the lowlifes in quiet city Boston start dropping dead and *you* think it's unrelated! Greenly, the day I want the Boston Police to do my thinking for me, I will have a fucking tag on my toe!

Florence Nightingale was an amazing figure. She created the American Red Cross. She saw the suffering from bad health conditions on the battlefield and in the military hospitals, and she fought like crazy to change the conditions; to make sure that t...
I was a pretty angry kid, and I got into military history largely as a way to vent my own anger. As I got older it narrowed down to a more specific focus on individual violence. I'm just trying to understand where it came from.
Official Washington cannot tell the American people that the real purpose of its gargantuan military expenditures and belligerent interventions is to make the world safe for General Motors, General Electric, General Dynamics, and all the other genera...

He had always had a gift for conjuring images in his mind's eye. It was one of the secrets of his military success.
The United States are ruled by a financial, media-centered, military-industrial apparatus. Behind Obama's grin, he orders bombings. He just displays a different image than Bush. That's how he expands U.S. global domination.
