"Redemption’s a huge part of being a cop. Sometimes we’re solving cases and helping punish crooks, and sometimes we’re helping the criminals to turn their lives around. It is a privilege to play a part in someone’s absolution."

"In this case, I played by the rules. I shut my mouth. You don’t fucking do this on my watch, I think. This doesn’t fucking happen. I won’t make the same mistakes again."

We don’t get to ask questions of the judges, but it is as if someone has inserted a knife and opened up another chink in my respect for the court process."

"Am I a tough guy, or do I only care about my reputation? Am I actually a coward? Have I let myself down? Have I let my dad down, even though he didn’t see me? Trevor is gone. I look around. No one has seen us. I decide never to talk about it, ever. It is my secret. I’ll think about that moment constantly. It drives me. It dictates how I live my life from that day forward."

"If you’re not looking for love, why would you date?”

"As it turned out, potions could take the witch out of the past, but they couldn’t take the past out of the witch. She still wanted so badly to be loved."
