Clarence Williams III: Linc Hayes

Quotes 

• Linc Hayes : Could I ask you a question, man? With the high cost of dying, why are you dealing in narco?

  Vineland : Well, very few mortuaries can make five thousand a day, tax-free, clear profit without advertising. Besides, death is such a depressing business. I rather like to cheer people up once in awhile.

• Linc Hayes : Yeah, yeah, I know. Lift that mop and tote that pail.

  Delores Sutton : It's your chosen profession.

  Linc Hayes : Well, let's just say it was kinda forced on me.

  Delores Sutton : Yeah, yeah, I know. You're a victim of economic disenfranchisement. No opportunity. No education.

  Linc Hayes : Right.

  Delores Sutton : Nobody has ever tried to help you.

  Linc Hayes : Well, that's just about it, lady.

  Delores Sutton : Ever think of trying to help yourself? Ever think it might be your responsibility?

  Linc Hayes : I've thought about it.

  Delores Sutton : Fine. When you do something about it, let me know. Somehow it's hard to believe you'd settle for a mop.

• Linc Hayes : Groovy, Doc! Sock it to 'em!

• Delores Sutton : Who are you? Just the other end of a mop!

  Linc Hayes : Wrong, chief. I'm a police officer.

• Delores Sutton : I guess you really are a cop.

  Linc Hayes : A cop with a mop. A cop who wants to help you.
