"You take all you Federal agences, your highly trained but obscure intelligence units, your college degrees and your high IQ, hand-selected personnel working undre bureau orders, sure, you take them. When you want a job done, give me New York's finest in or out of uniform. Give me the beat cop, the plainclothesmen, the dedicated people so imbued with the city and its environs that they can do a character study of anybody in a half second."
1965
