A Story to Die For
Warren Pierce: [after confessing to the murder] Jessica, you're the only one who knows I'm involved in this. What's to keep me from killing you?
Jessica Fletcher: Because I still believe that you're an honorable man.
Warren Pierce: I've already killed once.
Jessica Fletcher: That was because you believed you were avenging your son's death. There's a big difference between that and this. You could have let Patricia take the blame for the murder, and you could've gotten away before any of this unraveled, but you didn't. And that proves that you can't hurt an innocent. Or a friend.
Warren Pierce: You'll always be my friend.
The Last Free Man
Jessica Fletcher: Surely, as a historian, you have seen that there are those in the world who hate people who aren't like them. Now, do you really want to give them more reasons to justify that hatred?
Stanford Thornton: I've always felt very strongly about the traditions of the South, but it was an intellectual debate. I was simply trying to preserve...
Casssandra Hawkins: Preserve what, Mr. Thornton? Your noble past? And just what about that past are you wanting to keep alive? Because in spite of this town's accomplishments, this was a place where one man could own another, where children could be ripped from their parents' arms and never see them again. A place where a human being with passions and desires had to deny the very spark that makes him human: his own will. Meanwhile, the good townspeople just went on about their business. They saw no shame in it. Is that what you're trying to preserve? Not just prejudice, but the right not to notice when something is happening right in front of you?
Stanford Thornton: I have always sought the truth. That was my sole motivation.
Casssandra Hawkins: Oh, the truth! That is the most elusive of all mysteries. You know the insidious thing about a lie is that the best ones are closest to the truth.
