A scene from JFK 1991
Jim Garrison

Mr. Shaw, have you ever been a contract agent with the Central Intelligence Agency?

Clay Shaw

And if I was, Mr. Garrison... do you think I would be here today... talking to somebody like you?

Jim Garrison

People like you don't have to.

Clay Shaw

May I go?

Jim Garrison

People like you walk between the raindrops.

Clay Shaw

May I go?

Clay Shaw

Regardless of what you may think of me, I am a patriot first and foremost. I've spent half my life in the military defending my country.

Jim Garrison

You're the first person I've met who considers it an act of patriotism to kill his own President.
