10 Favorite Quotes From The Wire

My favorite TV show of ALL time is HBO’s The Wire.  David Simon is my hero and I hope to meet him someday.  I want to shoot his portrait and say thank you.  I loved the series from the first episode till the last.  The stories, characters and production was perfect.  I watch the series often.  Never get tired and I always discover something new.  Here’s my 10 favorite quotes from the series!
