• Debbie Mitford : Goffman says we wear these masks to make everyone else comfortable. Like you and your suits.

  Holden Ford : We're not talking about my clothes again.

  Debbie Mitford : Your suit is your uniform you wear to fit in at Quantico.

  Holden Ford : I don't want to fit in.

  Debbie Mitford : Everyone is trying to fit in.

  Holden Ford : Guess that explains your hippie thing, too.

  Debbie Mitford : My "hippie" thing?

  Holden Ford : Your peasant tops, long hair, bracelets, leather sandals. Helps you assimilate on campus.

  Debbie Mitford : Right. It's exactly the same.

  Holden Ford : What would you wear if no one were looking?

  Debbie Mitford : Probably nothing. What about you?

  Holden Ford : I'd wear my suit.

• Janet Ebner : Do you have children?

  Holden Ford : Not yet.

  Janet Ebner : Imagine one of those seven-year-olds is yours. Principal Wade has her take off her shoes and socks so that he can tickle her feet. Wouldn't you be worried one day he'd ask her to take something else off? Put a call in, please?

• Holden Ford : What's the point if we don't apply it to the real world?

  Bill Tench : We're trying to save women from getting pulled into vans and cut to pieces, not crucify some schoolmarm who hasn't done anything.

  Holden Ford : Yet! Certainly our goal is to be preemptive.

  Bill Tench : We're the FBI, Holden. That is not our goal. Yet.
