More quotes by Vincent Bugliosi
I'm not one of these people who says, 'I don't watch TV much.' Or looks down their nose at TV and they watch it for 20, 30 hours a week. I'm so busy. I work seven days a week that I just don't watch TV.

I don't like mansions. They depress me. In fact, I even feel sorry for a rich husband and wife living in a forty-room mansion. They're obviously searching for something they don't have, such as happiness or the respect of others.
Vincent Bugliosi

Winning is often simply getting up off the ground one more time than your opponent.
Vincent Bugliosi
The Bible, contrary to what people think, actually puts forth a strong case for no free will, no free will.
Vincent Bugliosi
I may have implied on several occasions to several different people that I may have been Jesus Christ, but I haven't decided yet what I am or who I am.
Vincent Bugliosi
My only master, my only mistress are the facts and the evidence. So if I reach a conclusion, it's only because the evidence took me there.
Vincent Bugliosi
One thing I have seen over and over again in life is that there is virtually no correlation between intelligence and common sense. IQ doesn't seem to translate that way.
Vincent Bugliosi
[Faith] is nothing more than wishful thinking, and the wish is no evidence of anything beyond itself. Yet so many religious people take their wishes for reality.
Vincent Bugliosi
George Bush is guilty of murder for the deaths of over 4000 young American soldiers who have died in the Iraqi war.
Vincent Bugliosi
Waiting for the conspiracy theorists to tell the truth is a little like leaving the front-porch light on for Jimmy Hoffa.
Vincent Bugliosi
When your blood is found at the murder scene, that's the end of the ball game, there's nothing more to say.
Vincent Bugliosi
A very beautiful honey blonde, Sharon Tate, looked into the eyes of the man who the evidence shows just four and a half months later would order her tragic and violent death.
Vincent Bugliosi
To form a strong opinion, you have to be knowledgeable about the subject. You have to have access to all the relevant information. You gotta be literally an expert.
Vincent Bugliosi
I only form an opinion when I feel that I've done sufficient research and have sufficient access to information.
