It was a department where you had honesty and integrity stamped right on you when you came into the Los Angeles Police Department. If you violated that, or if you were a dishonest cop, you were terrible. We got rid of you as quickly as possible.
Daryl Gates

Look at the number of cop shows and lawyer shows and forensics shows... I think there could be room for two quite different examinations of the same political office.
Geena Davis

My grandfather was a cop in Long Island. I often try to draw on things that I've heard about him.
Yancy Butler

No, the seventies was a totally different sensibility and that allowed us to break new ground as a cop show.
Paul M. Glaser

Now I know why guys like to hug girls. You guys just want to cop a feel. I can't believe that I've fallen for it all these years!
Sherilyn Fenn

People don't know where to place me. Terry Gilliam used me as a quirky cop in 'Twelve Monkeys', and then he hired me again to be an effeminate hotel clerk in 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas'. Another time, I was shooting this indie film 'The Souler Opposite' and six days a week, I'm playing this big puppy dog, then I come to the 'NYPD Blue' set and become this scumbag.
Christopher Meloni

So, through playing with Cop I realized that there is a potentially interested audience out in the world.
Jim Coleman

Star Trek wouldn't die. There were a whole lot of young people who were touched by the thought process of science fiction. If you watched a cop show, there wasn't anything that was going to stimulate your mind.
Gary Lockwood

The best car safety device is a rear-view mirror with a cop in it.
Dudley Moore

The next day, I got a phone call from him and he told me to come and read for a movie called New Jack City. So I went over there and they told me I was gonna wear dreads and play a cop.
Ice T

The Onion Field made a real writer. And then I knew it was over, I couldn't be a cop anymore.
Joseph Wambaugh

The Onion Field, that one got pretty close to me because I was a cop when it happened. I saw some of the indifference that my police department showed to the surviving officer.
Joseph Wambaugh

The Violence Against Women Act is so important. It provides money to train the cop on the beat, to train the judges that this is a new day, that we won't tolerate this violence and to know how to deal with it.
Patricia Ireland

We get picked up in these Rolls Royces and get three miles down the highway and five cop cars pull us over.
Johnny Thunders

When I first started the show, I was known as the 'cop nerd.' I was in the 9th Precinct in the East Village every day. I'd be at work wearing a fake bulletproof vest with foam in it, then I'd leave and put on a real one to ride around with these guys.
