""IF YOU'RE NOT WITH YOUR PEOPLE, A CITY IS JUST A FUCKING PLACE. EVEN THIS ONE.""

"I KNEW A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO LEFT TOWN IN '01 BECAUSE THEY SUDDENLY DIDN'T FEEL "SAFE" OR WHATEVER. IT'S GROSS. ABANDONING THE CITY WHEN IT NEEDS YOU THE MOST?"

""WHERE I COME FROM, PARANOIA IS JUST ANOTHER WORD FOR "NOT DEAD YET."""

""YOU'RE THE ONE WHO TAUGHT ME NOT TO SLING MUD JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE DIRT ON A GUY. A GOOD POLITICIAN IS SUPPOSED TO, HOW'D YOU PUT IT...?"
"SAVE IT FOR A RAINY DAY.""

""DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD I HAD TO WORK TO GET THE 30,OO0 LUG-HEADS ON MY PAYROLL TO TAKE A BACKWATER CHICK LIKE ME SERIOUSLY? THE SECOND I STOP ACTING LIKE THIS JOB IS ANYTHING LESS THAN LIFE AND DEATH IS THE SECOND I GET SENT BACK TO PASTURE.""

""I'M SURE YOU ALL HAD THIS DRILLED INTO YOU AT THE ACADEMY... A SINGLE BROKEN WINDOW LEFT UNFIXED LEADS TO VANDALS BREAKING MORE WINDOWS LEADS TO SQUATTERS TAKING OVER THE BUILDINGS LEADS TO HARD DRUG USE LEADS TO A SHITLOAD OF MAJOR CRIMES.""

""TRUST ME, SOONER OR LATER, EVERY MISTAKE COMES BACK TO HAUNT YOU.""
