Quotes
-
Abby Taylor : [to Jessie Stone] Larry, Curly, and Moe want to talk with you.
Comden : On behalf of the town council, Jim, and Carter, and I thought we ought to get brought up to speed on things.
Hansen : So, what's really going on?
Chief Jesse Stone : We have two killings. We're not sure whether it's the same weapon or weapons.
Hansen : That's all you know?
Chief Jesse Stone : Correct.
Hansen : You don't have any clues, nothing?
Chief Jesse Stone : Correct.
Jim Burns : Well, hell.
Comden : I told you he wasn't a talker.
Hansen : So what do we tell the press?
Chief Jesse Stone : I like "no comment."
Comden : Well, what is it you have your officers doing over at the high school?
Hansen : Maybe you could allocate your personnel a little better.
Jim Burns : Damn it, don't you talk?
Chief Jesse Stone : Only when I have something to say.
Hansen : Couldn't we get this thing resolved quicker with F.B.I. or state help?
Chief Jesse Stone : The F.B.I. and state police bring the national media. You won't like this town when they're through with it.
Hansen : Look, we think you should take all the resources you have and concentrate on the killings.
Chief Jesse Stone : I'm a cop. I've been a cop for a long time. I'm good at it. I know how to do this. You don't.
Jim Burns : Damn it, we can fire you.
Chief Jesse Stone : You can. But you can't tell me what to do.

Chief Jesse Stone : You shoot, you always shoot to kill. It's not like in the movies. You've got about a half a second to figure out what needs to be done.
Abby Taylor : I guess you need to be that way if you're a policeman.
Chief Jesse Stone : Maybe I'm a policeman because I am that way.
-
Abby Taylor : I hope you don't take this in any negative way, but you may be the simplest person I've ever met. You know what you know, and you do what you do, and you just keep doing it. Like a mule.
Chief Jesse Stone : Or a jackass.
