Richard Belzer: Sergeant John Munch

Quotes 

• Maria Fernandez : [about her "baby" doll]  Don't wake him up.

  John Munch : Lady, unless this is Pinocchio, he's not waking up.

• Detective Elliot Stabler : [about Monica Stewart]  That lady is a lunatic. What she's doing is a danger to society.

  John Munch : Yeah, but not illegal.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : You're defending her?

  Detective Olivia Benson : Maybe he's right, El. I mean, sometimes parents know what's best for their kids.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : Right, and we decided to vaccinate our kids so they'd be safe.

  John Munch : Well, that was your choice. Telling parents how to raise their kids? That's a quick slide down the slippery slope of government tyranny.

  Detective Olivia Benson : Monica Stewart's son got the measles and nothing happened to him. I mean, it's not so black and white.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : Wait a minute, wait a minute. Sierra got the measles from Monica's son and died. Now, all of a sudden, my little boy's at risk because of some nutcase mom?

  John Munch : Well, she's not the only nutcase mom. Ashlee takes that prize.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : But her kid was too young to be immunized. Every child under a year old is at risk. It's just stupid not to vaccinate your children.
