Savages, such as these men, have no place in our civilized society. And the evidence gathered against these men is overwhelming. Now, I've been tasked with sending a message to all who wish to do us harm.
Thomas
Anita: Well, I've given any number of cards to women in powder rooms. Unless you are that graceful honey, about 5 foot 7 with steel blue eyes as deep as the Arabian sea. Perhaps I vaguely recall.
Della: Yes, well, that's a relief. Because besides the excellent typeset of your card, nothing much about you made much of an impression on me at all.
I'm fighting for my life, and I need fighters by my side. Now, I thought you were that man, but maybe I was wrong. Because fighters kill. You don't seem to have it in you to finish the job. Do I need to find another fighter?
Mr. Grice
[Voice from written letters] Dear Mr. Mason, when will I be fully cleansed? I continue to ask God for guidance, but I fear he's turning his back on me. Dear Mr. Mason, what did we win in court? What's my freedom worth? My boy, Charlie, is still gone.

Birdy
Perry: So, Virg. There's something I want to show ya.
Virgil: Is it, um, pornography?
Perry: No.
Virgil: It's just, you guys tell me all these stories about clandestine meetings, and tailing dames, and cheating wives.
Pete: I could go get some if you want, Virg.
Virgil: Pale formaldehyde, dead, putrid bodies and the monotony of existence does a number on a man's virility.
This church can no longer afford to teeter on the whims of hysterical women.
Baggerly
George Gannon did not kill himself. There was a fourth man.
[talking to a reporter] A whore? No, I wouldn't say that. Have you ever heard of a whore who killed her own baby? This is much worse than that.
Maynard
Sister Alice: Mama, you don't need to worry about Charlie Dodson. God told me just now.
Birdy: What did God tell you?
Sister Alice: I'm going to resurrect him.
What kind of an accountant burns money?!
