List of voters for the quote

[ex-President Sarkoff thinks Blake is an assassin]Blake: I said, I'm not a murderer.President Sarkoff: I'm grateful for your semantic precision. Political assassination I can... live with. To be murdered would the final, sordid indignity.[Sarkoff picks up an antique pistol]President Sarkoff: Now, my educated friend, do you know what this is?Blake: Uh, it's a projectile weapon.President Sarkoff: [pointing the gun at Blake] It's called a revolver. Explosive charge here, projectile emerges with great force and considerable accuracy, over short distances anyway. Primitive, but efficient enough for my purposes.Blake: [urgently] President Sarkoff, I must speak with you! Will you listen to what I have to...[Sarkoff pulls the trigger, knowing the gun is empty]President Sarkoff: [lowering the gun] Ex-president.Blake: I haven't got time for the niceties of this game that you're playing.President Sarkoff: Just time for a hasty rationalization.Blake: I just want you to listen.President Sarkoff: I've wasted my life listening, listening to people who are arrogant, or vacuous, or just plain vicious. I smiled and acquiesced in the face of prejudice and stupidity. I've tolerated mediocrity and accepted the tyranny of second-class minds. But now all that is over. I am ready to die, here among the things I value. I am ready to let you kill me but I am not ready to listen to you justify the act.
