Dani Reese quotes from Life

Reese

Here! Take it! Everything that goes down his pants, you're going to keep.

Dani Reese

Focus on the words I'm actually saying.

Dani Reese

You think you hit bottom Rick? You have no idea how far down this goes, do you? You think you're bad? You think you got a demon inside of you? You don't even know what that means!

Reese

[to Crews] He was not looking for the person not obeying the law. He was looking for the person not not obeying the law. That kinda talk remind you of anyone?

Dani Reese

No threats against his family?

Not that we know, but we just work here. We go home after our shifts. It's the convicts who are here 24/7, they know what really goes on.

Charlie Crews

He means inmates.

He means convicts.

What, you don't like that word? What do you care?

Dani Reese

Come on Crews, let's go.

Yeah, we know who you are. Know you did your 12 years. Maybe you were innocent. Maybe not. It don't make no difference to us, because we know what you did to that correction officer in Pelican Bay. That makes you a con. Don't it?

Dani Reese

You two need to escort us out now.

You gettin' angry, convict?

Charlie Crews

[calmly] Anger ruins joy. Steals the goodness of my mind. Forces my mouth to say terrible things. Overcoming anger brings peace of mind. Leads to a mind without regrets. If I overcome anger, I will be delightful and loved by everyone.

Are you making fun of us?

Charlie Crews

It is the universe that makes fun of us all.

Reese

Why would the universe make fun of us all?

Crews

Maybe it's insecure.

Reese

I need a drink.

Crews

I know something better. [holding out a cup] Mango?

Reese

[shaking her head] That's okay.

Crews

These came all the way from Guatamala, and now they're right here in this cup. It's all connected, Reese.

Reese

What is?

Crews

It is.

Reese

Mm, that's Zen.

Crews

Is it?

Reese

That's Zen too, isn't it...

Crews

Is it?

Reese

Say "Is it?" one more time and I'll shoot you.

Charlie Crews

[reading the book 'Internet for Idiots'] IM stands for Instant Message.

Dani Reese

I know that.

Crews

You can't trace an IM.

Reese

Detective, I know that, too.

Dani Reese

I don't exactly understand you.

Charlie Crews

You don't have to understand here to be here.

Reese

That's what I don't understand.

Dani Reese

You expect me to believe that?

Charlie Crews

I have no expectations as to what you will or will not believe, but whatever you do believe can't change what was in that shoe.

Reese

Why exactly can't you talk like a normal person?

Crews

When exactly was the last time you met a normal person?

Crews

Stun baton?

Reese

Nine hundred thousand volts.

Crews

Felt like more.

Crews

[laying out all of the wedding photos] It's all here... except the one thing that isn't here...

Reese

[to nearby officer] Do you know what that means? [to everyone] Does anybody know what that means?

Reese

I need to know if this is gonna be a thing with you.

Crews

Which "this" is that?

Reese

This thing with Jake Silvers. Are you gonna go see falsely accused people everywhere?

Crews

You think that's not a good instinct for a cop to have?

Reese

I just need to know if it's going to be a thing with you.

Crews

Shouldn't "innocent until proven guilty" be a thing with all of us?

Crews

It was a near-death experience.

Reese

And it not being a full-death experience should make you happy.

Reese

That's very, uh, what's the word, Crews?

Crews

Enlightened.
