Meldrick Lewis quotes from Homicide: Life on the Street

Lewis

And for that matter, d'you ever know anybody in the witness protection program, or know anybody who knows anybody in the witness protection program?

Falsone

Nobody knows. That's the point, they're invisible. Just like the Nielsen families.

Lewis

No witnesses, no fingerprints, no shell casings, no clues of any kind. No leads of any sort.

Sheppard

Whoever killed Ryland sure knew what he was doing.

Lewis

Or she.

Sheppard

Yeah.

Lewis

If I could just find this thing, I could go home.

Sheppard

You won't find what you're lookin' for.

Lewis

What? Why not?

Sheppard

It's a mystery.

Lewis

Huh?

Sheppard

Life is a mystery. Just accept it.

Lewis

Yeah, well, that's what's wrong with this job. Ain't got nothin' to do with life.
