Telly Savalas: Lt. Theo Kojak

Quotes 

• Det. Gomez : [a pen with Kojak's name on it is found at a crime scene]  Did you drop it?

  Lt. Theo Kojak : [sarcastic]  Yeah, but I can't remember whether I dropped it before or after I broke into the safe!

• Delta : You are a really patient man, you know.

  [kisses Kojak on the cheek] 

  Lt. Theo Kojak : Hey eh, how come you talk so slow with your patient man and you kiss so fast?

  Delta : Oh, I don't always, do I?

• Lt. Theo Kojak : [to Delta]  And besides, with that lavender nightgown I saw you buy last week, you don't need an education, you need protection.

• Lt. Theo Kojak : [to cab driver]  If anybody asks you where you took me, you tell them.

  Cabbie : Right.

  Lt. Theo Kojak : Don't make it easy, have them pay you for it.
