Quotes
-
Dave Brown : [to Kyle Timkins] Bear in mind that I am not a racist. Fact is, I hate all people equally. And if it helps, I've slept with some of your people. You wanna be mad at someone, try J. Edgar Hoover. He was a racist. Or the Founding Fathers, all slave-owners.

Dave Brown : I don't cheat on my taxes... you can't cheat on something you never committed to.

Dave Brown : Every shooting testimony contains inconsistencies. Otherwise you wouldn't have a job. No man whoever shoots and kills another man is entirely cogent in the moment. No plan survives contact with the enemy.

Dave Brown : [giving driving lessons] You aim for the shortest wetback and watch him skedaddle. Plow the dice and the Schlitz Malt Liquor cans. And hit your siren as well. Let's see what we got...
[accelerates into pedestrians]
Dave Brown : [screeches to a halt] You'll get the hang of it.
Jane : Aren't you worried?
Dave Brown : About?
Jane : Getting a 1-28?
Dave Brown : Okay, listen, this is the most important thing I've told you so far. Everything you learned at the academy - bullshit. Illegal is just a sick bird. Just a military occupation, kid. Emergency law. Alright, let's have some fun...
-
Dave Brown : [to Kyle Timkins] I've been up the river, motherfucker, when you were still sucking on your mama's tit.
-
LAPD Union Rep : Why do you still want to be a cop?
Dave Brown : Because I'm a dutiful hard-charging motherfucker and I want to explicate the LAPD's somewhat hyperbolized misdeeds with true panache regardless of my alleged transgressions. Capiche?

Dave Brown : You wanna cuddle later?
Barbara : I have a boyfriend.
Dave Brown : Cheat on him!
Barbara : Like you cheat on your taxes?
