Laura Ballard quotes from Homicide: Life on the Street

Ballard

Heaven can wait. Homicide can't.

Ballard

[after Lewis and Falsone leave the room] Ah, the cloud of testosterone has risen!

Ballard

My cat did it, my dog did it, the devil made me do it.

Gee

Then check. If the devil is behind this, I want his ass in the box.

Ballard

We speak for the dead, remember?

Kellerman

Screw the dead. What have their moldering asses ever done for me?

Bayliss

What would it take for you to kill yourself?

Ballard

A date with John Munch.

The victim's name is Scotty Meyers, gunshot to the head.

Ballard

Did he say anything about who shot him?

No, ADASTW.

Gharty

What?

Arrived Dead And Stayed That Way.
