The Mentalist

Patrick Jane:
You said he's a purist. A man who kills simply for the pleasure of it. I'm starting to think he's a deeply damaged man who kills our of a need for attention - neglected as a child, I guess. What do you think, Jim?

James Panzer:
Well, I think you couldn't be more wrong. Look, I know the San Joaquin Killer better than anyone, as you yourself have said. I've spent over a year inhabiting his mind. This man is brilliant. He's a genius who runs circles around the police... He's killed at will without repercussions. This man is to be feared - not pitied.
