Quotable Quotes:
"I loved my time as Barney Miller but the series died as they all do. There is no sense in grieving it."
"[About the [Barney Miller (1975)] role]: Joseph Wambaugh was once asked what was the most realistic cop show on TV, and he said it was Barney Miller. And this is a guy who had been a cop. Over the years I've talked to many policemen who've told me the same thing. I always ask them, 'How many times on the job have you had to pull your gun.' Nine times out of 10, the answer is, 'Never.' The job is more about paperwork. It's a grind." (IMDB)
"Our greatest natural resource is the creativity of children and I hope they don't die before me."
