Manhunter (1986) | dir. Michael Mann      

You’d be more comfortable if you relax with yourself. We don’t invent our natures, they’re issued to us, along with our lungs and pancreas and everything else. Why fight it?

Manhunter (1986) dir. Michael Mann

Have you ever seen blood in the moonlight, Will? It appears quite black.

MANHUNTER (1986) DIR: MICHAEL MANN

Did you really feel depressed after you shot Mr. Garrett Jacob Hobbes to death? l think you probably did. But it wasn’t the act that got to you. Didn’t you feel so bad, because killing him felt so good? And why shouldn’t it feel good? lt must feel good to God. He does it all the time. God’s terrific! He dropped a church roof on 34 of his worshippers in Texas last Wednesday night, just as they were groveling through a hymn to his majesty. Don’t you think that felt good?
