Re: Horatio's Thread #5 - Will The Real Horatio Please Stand
Here is the full quote from Horatio's confession
"Horatio? I didn't know this was your parish."
"Well father, when the cardinal of New York makes a surprise visit to Miami, word gets around."
"You're coming to confess a new sin?"
"No, father. Same one."
"You're angry."
"Father, I am confused."
"Well, guilt takes many forms."
"Father, I have been over this and over this a thousand times and I am certain with every fiber of my body that I couldn't have done anything differently."
"I told you when you came to me those many years ago, with blood on your hands, that it's not about the life you took, but the lives you make different in the here and now. That's what god is judging you on."
"I know what my penance is!"
"So why are you here?"
"I need you to tell me."
"When you've done enough, Horatio, you'll know."
-- Cardinal Benedetti and Horatio Caine (From the Grave)
