Thomas Jane: Ray Mandel

Quotes 

• Ray Mandel : After tonight you are either going to figure this out and you are going to learn how to do this job or you are not and this job is going to eat you alive. There is the world inside this squad car and there is everything else outside of it. Your are out on patrol, every person you see that is not in a uniform is either somebody whose been in the back of your squad car or somebody who has not been in the back of your squad car yet. I am talking everybody. Everyone who is not a cop. You are not a part of them anymore. It is us against them. You are the sheep dog, they are the sheep. They could turn around and hang you out in a heartbeat. That's the trade. People sleep peaceably in their bed at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf and they will fucking hate you for it. That's the deal. It's the deal you made when you signed up for this!

• Ray Mandel : Can't trust a man with no vices.

  Nick Holland : My old man used to say bad habits were the only thing keeping sane men from going off the deep end.

• Ray Mandel : One thing you gotta remember, man. You're out on patrol, there's the world inside this squad car, then there's everything else outside of it. The only thing keeping you from what's out there is a couple of thin pieces of metal and glass. You gotta respect it. Your equipment too. I mean always respect your equipment.
