I'm only saying this cause guys like me, and there's a lot of them, we're never going to get the girl of our dreams. Never going to come close. So, the dream itself becomes kind of important. To turn on a TV or go to a movie and pretend the girl is somebody you might be with, that's as good as it gets.
S2 E11Hide and Seek
DD.A.
Objection to the speech.
OOz
Speech? [Laughs] If council had heard me before, he'd know that was no speech.
DD.A.
What I do know is that this is not the Raymond Oz show here.
OOz
It could be, if you'd stop interrupting, young fella.
You said that God has those kids. That tells me you believe in God. You got to be afraid of what the Almighty has in store for you. He's vengeful. Let's not forget that. Those little boys got parents. Let them bury their kids.
S2 E12Race with the Devil
FPFather Patrick
Well, this is quite a day. First I kill somebody, then I lie. What a wonderful priest I am.
Ellenor, tell them this is something that's done. Lawyers can't be too proud these days.
I don't believe in lawyers advertising, Jimmy.
You advertised for a date.
Yeah, well, I don't believe in that anymore, either.
Dr. Walsh, though I represent Mr. Parks I will give you a free tip: if this ever ends up in court you don't want to be saying things like you hope to find a big, green tumor the size of a softball.
S2 E13The Civil Right
MMcGovern
May I clarify?
No. I think you came off good and clarified, Mr. McGovern. And it's my turn now.
Bobby, on the next one, I want off.
What do you mean, you want off?
I mean, I want off. One rape a week is my limit.
JNJudge Nelson
I see. Well, you've dropped a bomb on my desk. There's absolutely no chance of me ruling on this ex parte. I'm going to notify the attorney general's office so I can hear oral arguments from both sides.
In wide open court?
JNJudge Nelson
Yes, council, wide open court. That's the way I like to do it.
[A Baptist choir sings in Bobby's office]
MMartha
You hear them? Every note is dead on. We're good!
Very good, but...
MMartha
So, we have a case. They can't reject us just because we're Christian. It's against the law. First amendment!
It's a synagogue, Ms. Burl. They can reject you on Christianity.
[At the wedding ceremony between his mom and another woman]
What do I call her? Do I have to call her mom? Dad?
MBMary Beth
Michelle will be fine. Are you OK?
I'm fine. But I don't want to hear nothing about the honeymoon.
S2 E14The Pursuit of Dignity
I have a client who could be perceived as um, a little too quick to sue. I'm worried one or more of the jurors may have seen your commercial.
And?
And, um, with a litigious plaintiff I don't think it helps our cause to be associated with Jimmy The Grunt.
Go to hell.
Jimmy, she's not wrong.
Well you go to hell, too.
S2 E15Line of Duty
[addressing the judge] My only defense here is legal. I'm a criminal defense attorney. I represent bad people. The adversary system is premised on the defense attorney doing whatever he can to get the guy off. It's drummed into us, we are bound by the limits of the law, but only the law. Morality. Right or wrong. Justice. If a criminal lawyer starts asking himself "What's the just result here" "How should we get to there", he's lost. It's not a noble excuse. But a legal one.
JWJudge Walsh
[To Jimmy] One of the problems with the proliferation of law schools, night schools, part time schools, salons, come-get-a-shampoo, earn-a-law-degree-while-you-wait-for-your hair-to-dry, we over flood the market with attorneys. Who, because of the competition have to go out and create litigation just so they can scratch a living. I hate it. And you're a poster boy for the problem.
SSilverman
So, the defendant knew about the raid.
I'd answer, but the defense is about to object.
