Errol Childress quotes from True Detective

Errol Childress

Errol Childress

Come on inside, little priest. To the right, little priest. Take the bride's path. This is Carcosa.

Errol Childress

Do you wanna know what they did to me? What I will do to all the sons and daughters of man.

You know there's a little church around here? Pretty old? Black minister?

Errol Childress

You must mean Son of Life, sir. That place shut down. '05, I think, just after all them hurricanes.

Mmm. You live around here?

Errol Childress

No, sir. I live in St. Martin. Got a parish contract. Take care of some cemeteries, public schools.

All right. Thanks. Hey, you know how to get to 49 from here?

Errol Childress

Sure. About a half-mile, you'll see a left. PR 1435. Take that. About 7 miles of fields, you'll hit 49 before Crowley.

Know your way around, huh?

Errol Childress

Oh, yeah, boss. I know the whole coast. My family-

[cutting him off] Thanks.

Errol Childress

My family's been here a long, long time.

You have a good walk?

Errol Childress

[affecting a refined English accent] Yes, my dear. Top-notch walk this morning. Top-notch constitutional. It's been weeks since I left my mark...would that they had eyes to see.
