Quotes

Crawford: Do you know what the difference is, sir, between Adolf Hitler and Al Capone? Hitler's dead. Capone lives like a king in Florida. Maybe he's crazy, maybe he's not. All I know is, a man who spends his entire life lying to everyone about everything, the truth rots in there. Let's catch some of his marbles on their way out.
