I couldn't become a policeman, so being county prosecutor is the next best thing.

Lawyers are very, very good at keeping you out of prison, but they will sacrifice your reputation and credibility to do so.

If you grew up where I grew up, you would experience a very different criminal justice system than Camden, New Jersey.

If you want to be a cop, it's not for everybody, no question about it, but there's no place like New York City.

Make your educational laws strict and your criminal ones can be gentle; but if you leave youth its liberty you will have to dig dungeons for ages.

If you're dealing with criminals, they're not going to want to go to court.

It doesn't make sense for me to be a lawyer in a place where there is no law.

I've always been tremendously interested in criminal law. It goes to a deep interest I have in prisons and the criminal element, and what we do as a society with it. I've always been touched by the idea of criminality.

There are a lot of things you can do with a law degree background, but I just didn't have a passion for it.

I have an affinity for the law. I like looking at the small type on contracts, and if I could have afforded law school, I probably would have gone.
