Hank Voight quotes from Chicago P.D.

Voight

[to the team] I've been given the go-ahead to run Intelligence - the way I want to run it. No interference. This is our unit now. You do things my way, our way, you'll unclip your badge at night knowing you did right. The police standing next to you are your family. And to me, there's nothing more important.

Voight

[interrogates suspect] You tell me everything you know, every participant. Because as a coward, Vaughn. and I know you're a coward, 'cause that's who lays bombs at cancer fund-raisers You will not endure the pain that I'm going to put you through.

Voight

I deal with things in the moment. I make the best decision that I can. Sometimes I'm right. Sometimes I'm wrong. And I accept that, and I move forward, knowing I did the best I can to protect this city. I have my convictions, and I don't give a damn what anybody thinks of 'em. You have yours as well, Jay. I know that. And I respect that.

Voight

Let me get this straight. You talked to a guy to talk to a guy?

Voight

[to Karl, the gunman who tried to kill Halstead] Did you grow up Catholic, Karl? I mean, most Poles are Catholic, right? Remember hearing about purgatory? I mean, if you weren't paying attention, it's it's a way station between heaven and hell. It's like this place. Heaven, for you, is upstairs. Cup of coffee, comfortable chair, we talk. You tell me why you opened up on two cops, put a girl in the hospital with a hole in her neck, clinging to life. Hell. It's a place we call the silos. About a 15-minute drive from here.

Voight

In about two minutes I got to meet Commander Perry so he can brief command staff. You know, no one out there really knows how we operate how we put ourselves in harm's way. If they did, our hands would be tied. And the worst of the worst that we hunt down would go free. So when I say this stays in house, this stays in house so we can keep operating the way we do. Halstead, what you did today-- What you did for this city well, no one will ever know. But this family knows.

Voight

[after Mouse shows him some intel he got] That's a nice pull. Interesting cat, Mouse.

Voight

Dennis Lee. CPD's most wanted fugitive for almost six years.

Voight

Erin is grieving. She's in a vulnerable space. That's exactly where you want her isn't it? Easier for you to get your hooks into her. Listen to me, don't ever come back here.

Voight

Secret operation or not, you can't commit murder and steal bodies with impunity.

Voight

I'm not always going to explain what I do and you're not always going to like me for that. But just... I... Never forget I love you.

Voight

We solve the cases that need to be solved. This case needs to be solved.

Voight

Hey, I've been meaning to tell you... I'm lucking to have you in my unit.

Voight

You know, every once in a while, a worm like you slips the hook. You know, State's Attorney says there's not enough evidence to prosecute. So, you know, some patsy takes the fall. Worse, he ends up dead, that sort of thing. Me and my unit end up muzzled, even though we know who did it. Hmm? I was thinking about something. See, a long time ago, they told me, those little statues of Justice are blindfolded so she can What is it? So she can remain impartial. You know what I'm thinking? I'm thinking I'm glad she's blindfolded, 'cause there are times I gotta do things she wouldn't want to see.

Go back to Atlantic City, Ainge. You got 24 hours, and trust me, I'll come looking for you. I mean, you're not out of my city by then you and me are gonna take a ride. I'll show you parts of Chicago you never seen before. You understand what I'm saying?
