Quotes 

• Dr. Richard Kimble : [in his cell, talking through the bars to Gerard]  You make yourself believe that being a fugitive has done something to my mind. You're forgetting that my story's exactly the same now as it was the night of the murder.

  Lt. Philip Gerard : And it was and is a lie.

  Dr. Richard Kimble : [angrily]  Are you so godlike that because you couldn't find a one-armed man you don't believe he exists?

  Lt. Philip Gerard : I've done everything humanly possible to find him!

  Dr. Richard Kimble : [studies Gerard for a moment]  I think you have. I wonder why.

  Lt. Philip Gerard : It's my job.

  Dr. Richard Kimble : It's also a curse, isn't it, Gerard? You know, I think you have nightmares too. Your nightmare is that when I'm dead you'll find him.

  [Gerard's jaw tightens slightly, then he turns to leave] 

  Dr. Richard Kimble : What are YOU running from, Gerard?

• Dr. Richard Kimble : It's all very easy for you, Gerard, black and white.

  Lt. Philip Gerard : Yes, it has to be. Which gives you the advantage. Any disguise you choose. Hero to a whole town.

  Dr. Richard Kimble : Saving kids from a burning bus. That's a disguise.

• Wilma Springer : You asked for a chance to explain and I gave it to you. And now you want me to be an accomplice!

  Dr. Richard Kimble : Do you know of any other human being I can ask?

  [Mrs. Springer stares at him for a moment and then rushes past him for the door] 

  Dr. Richard Kimble : Is that too much to ask? A life for a life?
