Quotes 

• Jennifer Haines : Didn't anyone ever say no to you before?

  David Greenhill : Yes, my wife said "no" just before I threw her out the window.

• Jennifer Haines : [about Greenhill]  I think I can get him off.

• Emily, Jennifer's Assistant : [David Greenhill is there to see Jennifer]  So he wasn't just watching the trial. He was watching you.

  Jennifer Haines : Tell him I'm in a meeting. I can't see him.

• David Greenhill : But do you know what I see when I look at you?

  Jennifer Haines : I can't hazard a guess.

  David Greenhill : I see the little girl of a mother, who was a courtroom groupie, who used to take her to trials after school because she couldn't go to the movies.

  Jennifer Haines : [chuckles]  Where did you hear that?

  David Greenhill : Some old bailiff down at the courthouse.

  Jennifer Haines : Eddie?

  David Greenhill : Yeah. I see the little girl who at the ripe age of fourteen, jumped up in the middle of a murder trial and said "Objection!" And the judge took you into his chambers, and you ended up clerking for that judge ten years later.

  Jennifer Haines : How do you know all this?

  David Greenhill : You interest me. And I really delve into *anything* that interests me.

  Jennifer Haines : Uh-huh. And did this interest develop before or after you threw your wife out the window?

  David Greenhill : [advances, sighs:]  We need to get one thing straight. I did not murder anybody.

• Jennifer Haines : So you've never been married before?

  David Greenhill : A friend of mine once said, "Never marry a woman for her money. Get her money without marrying her."

• Jennifer Haines : [softly, as David strokes her chin]  Why... why did you take... the gloves off before you killed her?

  David Greenhill : [smiles]  It felt better. Killing with gloves on would be like... fucking with a rubber.

  [Jennifer's blue eyes widen in sheer panic] 

• Jennifer Haines : Look, I'm warning you. This is like saying "fuck you" to your brain surgeon the night before the operation.
