Melbourne Detective Quotes in He Died with a Felafel in His Hand (2001)

Melbourne Detective: I'll tell you how this game works Daniel. We're the cops, we get to ask the questions.

When things fall out of balance, you know what happens then don't you Daniel. Your spiritual values start to decline. You get your disintegration of your social structure, don't you? The system collapses. Petulance, flood, famine. It happened to the Romans, it happened to the Greeks, it happened to the Ancient Mesopatamians. And we don't want it happening to us do we Daniel?
