Det. Beau Felton: So you admit you deal drugs?
'Pony' Johnson: In today's economy? You bet.
Det. Stan Bolander: Sometimes I wanna call my wife just to hear the sound of her voice. But I know that five minutes into that phone call, my blood pressure is going through the roof, the phone is sailing across the room and I'm wishing that she's on a plane falling out of the sky. It's over. I know it's over. But I had to replace six telephones before I, I really got the hint.
Det. John Munch: Every evening is as random as the next, death doesn't follow a schedule.
Det. Tim Bayliss: Homicide, sweet homicide.
Lt. Al 'Gee' Giardello: It's better to be judged by twelve than carried by six.
Det. Meldrick Lewis: You go when you're supposed to go, and everything else is homicide.
Det. Tim Bayliss: I'm a detective, Frank. I'm a keen observer of the human condition. I pick up on the subtlest clues, I react to the slightest suggestion. In short, I deduct.
Det. Frank Pembleton: Who told you?
Det. Tim Bayliss: Brodie.
Sgt. Kay Howard: If you were going to hide a body, where would you bury it?
Det. John Munch: In a cemetery.
Det. Meldrick Lewis: In this job you gotta be able to howl at yourself, or else you die inside.
Det. Frank Pembleton: Virtue isn't virtue unless it slams up against vice. So consequently, your virtue's not real virtue. Until it's been tested... tempted.
Det. Frank Pembleton: Meldrick! In the mood for a multiple homicide?
Det. Meldrick Lewis: On a Friday night? Always.
Det. Frank Pembleton: Life would be perfect, if it was just kids and dogs.
Det. Steve Crosetti: Either it's murder, or this library has a very strict overdue policy.
Sgt. Kay Howard: What is y'all's fascination with sperm?
Det. Meldrick Lewis: It's just a healthy curiosity. If it weren't for our daddy's sperm, wouldn't none of us be here.
Sgt. Kay Howard: Or your mama's eggs.
Det. John Munch: I don't like to form attachments with people. They either get suspended or throw china at you.
Det. Frank Pembleton: Do you think some people work harder to be stupider than others?
Det. Tim Bayliss: I'm going to go out on a limb and say yes.
Det. Frank Pembleton: Blind faith is the crutch of fools.
Lt. Al 'Gee' Giardello: Oh, I get it. You don't feel anything at all. You're the type of guy that two weeks from now, you'll be stopped at a traffic light and all this will hit you and when it hits, it'll hit hard. It'll hit you so hard that your heart will burst into a hundred pieces.
Det. Frank Pembleton: He who loses control, loses.
Sgt. Kay Howard: You're a man.
Det. Beau Felton: I'm your partner.
Sgt. Kay Howard: I'm a woman.
Det. Beau Felton: You're a cop.
