Ardelia Mapp Quotes:

  • Clarice Starling: [Hannibal Lecter has escaped] He won't come after me.

    Ardelia Mapp: Oh really?

    Clarice Starling: He won't. I can't explain it... He - he would consider that rude.

  • Ardelia Mapp: Is this Lecter's handwriting? "Clarice, doesn't this random scattering of sites seem desperately random - like the elaborations of a bad liar? Ta, Hannibal Lecter."

    Clarice Starling: "Desperately random." What does he mean?

    Ardelia Mapp: Not random at all, maybe. Like there's some pattern here...?

    Clarice Starling: But there is no pattern or the computers would've nailed it. They're even found in random order.

    Ardelia Mapp: Random because of the one girl. The one he weighted down.

    Clarice Starling: Oh, Fredrica Bimmel, from... Belvedere, Ohio. First girl taken, third body found. Why?

    Ardelia Mapp: 'Cause she didn't drift. He weighted her down.

    Clarice Starling: What did Lecter say about... first principles?

    Ardelia Mapp: Simplicity...

    Clarice Starling: What does this guy do, he "covets". How do we first start to covet?

    Ardelia Mapp: "We covet what we see -"

    Clarice Starling: " - every day."

    Ardelia Mapp: Hot damn, Clarice.

    Clarice Starling: He knew her.
