Mac Taylor quotes from CSI: NY

Lindsay

(About Jennifer Walsh) Who was that?

Mac

Nobody.

Lindsay

'Nobody' is pretty cute.

Lindsay

Mac, are those flowers on your desk also from 'nobody'?

Mac

(Chuckles) Lindsay, go.

Jo

Mac, how do you eat your peanuts?

Mac

Peanuts? Uh... like everybody else, I suppose.

Jo

Well, down south, we like to eat ours boiled, 'cause it makes the shell soft, and we can open them with our teeth.

Mac

Threats... intimidation, harassment... you're nothing but a coward.

You don't know anything about me.

Mac

I know you terrorized Ryan Richards and his wife for years. I also know you weren't man enough to take credit for it.

Mac

(Reading a caption) 'Savor the victory now 'cause you'll be dead by morning.' That's more than a picture, that's a death threat.

I just wanted him to lie awake at night, dreading the sunrise, the same way I have, every day, since I was 17 years old.

Mac

Where'd you go after the fight?

To the halfway house, to make curfew. You don't believe me? You can ask the gestapo pigs who run the place.

Jo

What's our motive here, Mac, if it wasn't for insurance money? And if he's really such a great guy, why would he walk away from all that fame and adoration?

Mac

When we find him, remind me to ask.

Jo

You know, the horrors that these young people endure while fighting for their country. Is it any wonder they're unable to cope with daily life?

Mac

We have an epidemic of homeless veterans on our nation's streets. Over 100,000 brave men and women just lost in the shuffle.

Jo

It's shameful.

Mac

(Checking out a postcard) It's blank.

Adam

Well, that's why I swabbed the stamp adhesive for DNA.

Charlie died in my passenger seat. I pulled over. Sat there... for what seemed like hours. Deciding if I was capable of going through with the unthinkable.

Mac

Burning his body to make it look like your own.

I know what I did to his body is wrong, and I should be punished for that, but... I didn't kill Charlie.

Mac

Well, unfortunately, the science can't confirm that. The damage to the body was so severe that determining a definitive time and cause of death is impossible.

What... what does that mean?

Mac

Well, the D.A. will consider what we can prove, and then decide whether or not to charge you with murder.

Charlie was dead when I lit that fire. You have to believe me.

Mac

For what it's worth... I do believe you. But it's not up to me.

Mac

Full military honours for Private Hunt's funeral. He and his family will get the dignified closure they deserve.

Jo

While I don't condone Ryan Richards' choices, I do understand why he made them. Love just makes you do crazy things.

Mac

Well, sometimes I think that's just an excuse for bad behavior.

Jo

Oh, I don't know, Mac. When it comes to matters of the heart, I've had my share of temporary insanity.

Mac

Maybe I have, too.

Jo

(Referring to Jennifer Walsh) I hear you have a new friend.

Mac

Lindsay has an overactive imagination.

Jo

(Referring to the Jennifer Walsh) Flack said she was looking at you like she wanted something else.

Mac

Flack is dead. He's dead.

Jo

Get over it, Mac Taylor. Look at me. You're a charming, sexy single man. There's no hiding from the ladies.

Mac

I'm not hiding.

Jo

I think the word sexy makes you nervous. Speaking of crazy love, I got to go meet my kids for pizza.

Mac

They're still showing that thing?

Jo

Apparently so.

Mac

I never saw that.

Jo

You didn't? Aw, Mac, you should. I think you'd love it. It ranks right up there with that eight-hour Reagan documentary you're always watching.
