The Great O'Malley (1937)

Donald Crisp: Captain Cromwell

Quotes 

• Captain Cromwell : [Referring to O'Malley]  That guy's brains run with nothing but city ordinances. He spends all his time studying his manual. He picks laws out of the air from wastebaskets, from graveyards! He thinks of things that were enacted when Times Square was a hog ranch.

• Captain Cromwell : [When O'Malley is in the hospital]  There's nothing too good for a good cop.

• Captain Cromwell : [Scolding]  You need heart, O'Malley. You need something in your veins beside ordinances! I'm asking you to be a regular human being.

  James Aloysius O'Malley : I do my duty, sir.

  Captain Cromwell : [Exasperated]  Get out!

• Captain Cromwell : [to Pinky Holden about O'Malley]  Why pick on one policeman because he's so dumb, he thinks he can run the whole world on a police manual?

• Captain Cromwell : [to O'Malley]  There's more to your job than handing out tickets like confetti!
