Crime Killer (1987)

Athan Karras: Karras

Quotes 

• Karras : It's supposed to be a police department but it feels like an insane asylum around here. He was practically killed on the streets like a dirty alley cat and now the police commissioner wants to put him on trial. It doesn't make sense. No sense at all. I thought the department was supposed to stand up and fight for him.

  Police Chief : I fought Karras. I fought!

  Karras : Well not enough damn it!

  Police Chief : You seem to forget there are two dead cops out there.

  Karras : Cops my ass! I'll go through the entire department and if I find another cop like that, I'll kill the S.O.B. Those two cops were traitors and they got what they deserve. And believe that! The C.I.A. made a mistake letting Zeus go. He's one of the best. The very best! You do know that.

  Police Chief : Yes, I do!

  Karras : Well, if this country doesn't want him, I'm sure another country does. Why don't we just sell him or put him in a circus or something? You could have done anything... anything but taken his badge away. We've killed his pride damn it!

  Police Chief : Listen Karras. Not you or me has the right to say that. It is the politicians who have the final say. The politicians!

  Karras : Oh, fuck the politicians!
