"The vast majority of the cases investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation are best worked by traditional methods. Methods such as I tend to employ are not in high demand, because there's not a high need. If this country is plagued by evil, mostly it's small, petty evil, committed by small, petty citizens. Twin Peaks is an anomaly in more ways than one, Moiraine. And I'm of more use here."
