Christopher Shyer: Lawrence O'Malley, Hannibal Lecter

Quotes 

• Lindsay Dole : And, sir, can you tell the court why you would eat these women?

  Lawrence O'Malley : Because they were so beautiful. Like you. The book of Genesis tells us that woman came from man. When man consumes the woman it makes him one with her... and by eating them, I know they will go to heaven because I am going to heaven, and they will go with me.

  [looking directly at Lindsay] 

  Lawrence O'Malley : You'll be going to heaven, Clarice.

• Lawrence O'Malley : [to his lawyer, Lindsay Dole, after he has asked to speak to her, alone, in a conference room at the court house]  Hello, Clarissa.

  Bobby Donnell : Oh, brother!

  Lawrence O'Malley : Could you leave, Bobby? I'd like to speak to Clarissa alone.

  Lindsay Dole : I'm not Clarissa, Lawrence. Jody Foster wasn't even Clarissa. She was Clarice. And even she's not Clarice anymore.
