Broken City

Mayor Hostetler:
You know, women call men dogs. That's to suggest we're somehow untrustworthy or disloyal. But a dog is anything but. And if men are dogs, what the goddamn hell does that make women? You've ever seen a b*tch in heat? She will grind herself across the grass to try and get her that itch. And she can find a way to sneak out of the backyard, as any dog will do.

Billy Taggart:
Doesn't anybody in this town speak in complete f***in' sentences anymore?

Mayor Hostetler:
There are some wars you fight and some wars you walk away from. This isn't the fighting kind.

Prosecutor:
Your Honor, it's murder. Even when the police do it.

Billy Taggart:
I did it to keep a woman.

Cathleen Hostetler:
Then you *do* believe in love.

Billy Taggart:
I believe in loving the one you're with.

Cathleen Hostetler:
Mm, what are you, stupid or Catholic?

Billy Taggart:
Both.

Cathleen Hostetler:
[to Taggart] You are cut rate. You're cheap to hire, and you're cheaper to throw away.

Carl Fairbanks:
Guess we both misjudged Billy, Mayor.

Carl Fairbanks:
Then again you misjudged a lot of us.

Carl Fairbanks:
You thought Billy would rollover; you thought Andrews was sleeping with your wife; [pause] you thought I wasn't.
