List of voters for the quote

Spooner: [picks up a book on Lanning's desk] Hansel and Gretel... Is that on the USR preferred reading list? Dr. Calvin: Not precisely. [Spooner picks up a stool and swings it into an unbroken window in Lanning's office, which cracks, but doesn't break] What in God's name are you doing?! Spooner: Did you know that was safety-glass? Be pretty difficult for an old man to throw himself through that, don't you think? Dr. Calvin: [nonplussed] Well, he figured out a way. Spooner: [unconvinced] Uh-huh. [looks around the office] Dr.Calvin: Detective, the room was security locked. Nobody came or went. You saw that yourself. Doesn't this have to be suicide? Spooner: Yep. [drawing his gun] Unless the killer is still in here. [starts searching through a container full of robotic parts] Dr. Calvin: [realising what Spooner's getting at] You're joking, right? [follows him] This is ridiculous- Spooner: Yeah, I know. The Three Laws. Your perfect circle of protection. Dr. Calvin: "A robot cannot harm a human being." The First Law of Robotics. Spooner: Yeah, I've seen your commercials. But doesn't the Second Law say that a robot must obey any order given by a human. What if it was given an order to kill? Dr. Calvin: Impossible, it would conflict with the First Law! Spooner: Right, but the Third Law states that a robot can defend itself. Dr. Calvin: Yes, but only if that action does not conflict with the First or Second Laws. Spooner: Well, you know what they say; Laws are made to be broken. Dr. Calvin: No. Not these Laws. They are hard-wired into every robot. A robot can no more commit murder than a human can... walk on water. Spooner: Well, you know, there was this one guy, a long time ago- [Sonny jumps out of the container, knocking Spooner's gun out of his hand]
