Quote by True Detective

"One of the great things about this is that the identities of the men, at these times, was very clear. I didn’t have to do a lot of creative wandering in my head. One of my favorite things that I got to do with Cohle was go, “Who is he in ‘95?” Here’s a guy who is coming back on to a case, just barely hanging onto the rails. He needs a case to keep his shit together, literally. In 2012, he’s off the rails. He’s cashed in. He’s fallen prey to his own beliefs. Every day that he’s alive is another day of penance, in this indentured servitude he calls life."
