Hill Street Blues

Howard: (in a megaphone to the minorities on Decker Avenue) Your activities on this block from henceforth will be monitored with the scrupulousness that Othello brought to bear on Desdemona. You will be wearing our attention like a pair of stolen jeans!

Phil: Well, it appears that a pair of our detectives were involved in a bit of street theater… their thespian exuberance got somewhat carried away. Furillo: Our detectives? Phil: Yes, John LaRue shot Neal Washington.

Fay: Contrary to what you think, when it's called for, I am perfectly capable of self-restraint!

Coffey: (commenting on Renko's moped) Renko, did you put your Harley in the dryer again?

Henry: (about Richard Brady to Frank while discussing opening a Pizza Parlor) I'd make that bastard a poison pizza.
