Detective Martin Hart:
I mean, can you imagine if people didn't believe, what things they'd get up to?
Detective Rustin Cohle:
Exact same thing they do now. Just out in the open.
Detective Martin Hart:
Bullshit. It'd be a f***ing freak show of murder and debauchery and you know it.
Detective Rustin Cohle:
If the only thing keeping a person decent is the expectation of divine reward, then brother that person is a piece of sh*t; and I'd like to get as many of them out in the open as possible.
Detective Martin Hart:
Well, I guess your judgment is infallible, piece-of-sh*t-wise. You think that notebook is a stone tablet?
Detective Rustin Cohle:
What's it say about life, hmm? You gotta get together, tell yourself stories that violate every law of the universe just to get through the god damn day. Nah. What's that say about your reality, Marty?
