Quotes 

• Morgan : [after Murphy failed to shoot down a purse snatcher who outran him]  You'll catch a heart attack before you catch a nigger, Tarzan.

  Corelli : What's his problem?

  Murphy : He thinks I'm a liberal.

• Morgan : Hey Murph, what do you think of that son of a bitch, huh? Connolly. Captain Connolly. That clown they dress up as a cop. That fuckin' banana. I mean, who does he think he's playin' with, some chickenshit rookie? I've been on the job too long, you know what I mean? Yeah, they might get me for coopin'. Or for scorin' a little nookie on the side. Or, maybe even shakin' down a bodega. I never said I was the smartest guy in the world, but when he comes up with this phony witness shit...

  Murphy : They *got* witnesses, Einstein.

  Morgan : Yeah, deaf and dumb ones, right?

  Murphy : Real live ones! The kind that put you away.

  [Murphy gives him a hard and direct smirk, and walks out of the bar] 

  Morgan : Hey Murph! Murphy! Murphy, come here!

  [goes out after Murphy] 

  Morgan : [confronting Murphy on the street]  Murphy! What are you talking about?

  Murphy : They got the little chick that was hiding up there behind the junk pile!

  Morgan : What chick?

  Murphy : Yeah, they got me and Coreli, too... A-Number One police work... Poor kid wasn't botherin' nobody, and you throw him off the roof!

  Morgan : You shut the fuck up!

  Murphy : You fuckin' creep, I wish I was man enough to turn you in!
