The law's the law, right?
And policemen serve it.
We don't ask all the whys and wherefores, do we? Otherwise...
Well, what then?
But the Inspector, when it comes to banging up poofs and Mary Anns... To see him, he's a man all scooped of belief.
Bella Drake Do you believe in it?
Hell's bells. Not you, too?
Bella Drake Maybe he just understands what it is to be lonely. Say a law was made tomorrow... for you to love me was a crime. They say it's filthy and unnatural. Would you stop, Bennet? Turn off your love like a gas tap, just to obey?
I'd be the filthiest scofflaw this land had ever seen. [kisses her]
