The chief internal enemies of any state are those public officials who betray the trust imposed upon them by the people.

I find I like to work with a lot of the same actors, because I find that there's sort of shorthand there, and there is this unspoken trust, both ways. They trust me and I trust them. And I know what I'm going to get from them, to an extent. It's just fun, kind of creating this little family.

When you're told to go brief a United States senator on a covert operation, you go do it. And you trust the information isn't going to leak.
