Quotes
-
Jeff Williams : [Lecturing in his poetry class] What a man is or does in private becomes a part of his public image. Good or bad, it's on the record. And whether that's good or bad, I leave you to think about.

Detective Lt. Mike Stone : I don't want the coroner to give me that bullet. I want it from him right now, so come along, we're going to the hospital.
Jeff Williams : I don't think so, Lieutenant. You don't have that authority. You're a policeman; I shouldn't have to tell you the law.
Inspector Steve Keller : The law?
Jeff Williams : Mm-hmm. I did some checking, and it seems among the other personal guarantees in this country is the guarantee that our bodies are inviolate. Not even the Supreme Court can force a man to submit to a surgical operation. That's the law, gentlemen. And I'm sure that, as officers sworn to uphold it, you won't do anything to make me break it.
