[Stone is forced to make a lenient plea deal for Di Biasi]
It's not a perfect world, but at least we can walk away from this knowing we did the right thing.
Did we? Seems to me all we did was make 2 wrongs look like a right.

Do you think a lot of cops are gay?
No way, man. The department's got a special test. They look you in the eye, and if your left eye blinks before your right eye, they know you're gay. [blinks at Greevey with his left eye]

What gives you the right to decide how I should live the rest of my life?
Unfortunately, you did. Not once, not twice, but three times.
[A defendant has just punched Stone in the jaw]
It only hurts when I prosecute.
CCurry
This wasn't a prosecution, it was a warning, wasn't it? To anyone else thinking about a mercy killing. What gave you the right to use me?
Unfortunately, you did. Not once, not twice, but three times.

How many times would you go out with her before you went to bed with her?
Once. Hey, what do you want, a bedtime story? I'd wait until the honeymoon?
Did you ever hear about a new disease they got, called AIDS?
Did you ever hear of a new invention called condoms?
Are we 'your kind of people'?
MManager
Well, you make it in the looks department, but the wardrobe needs a lot of help.
At least we gave them justice.
Justice doesn't give you grandchildren.

If you grew up where we did ... Ever hear of Waverly, Pennsylvania? [Max shakes his head] It's the Greenwich of Scranton. It's a good life, but it can be a straitjacket.
With a mink lining.
PPolly
If you've worn mink all your life, you start to wonder what denim feels like.
S1 E5Happily Ever After
And guess who it was registered to?
Himes, Gilbert?
Nope. And not to Ralston, Janet, either.
[surprised] Ralston, Alan?!?! Great. He was killed with his own gun.
That's amazing. I know cops who been in shooting cases that can't remember their badge numbers afterwards. Her husband gets shot, she gets shot, victim of a horrible crime, she remembers every second.
True love. They'd sell each other out for a nickel.
Either she's evil, or she's two years old. She wants what she wants when she wants it.

You don't scare me, Mr. Stone.
Oh yes I do, Mrs. Ralston. I scare you a great deal. And I should.
I hate horseback riding. Scares the hell out of me.
Scary for the horse, too.
