Murder, She Wrote: A Story to Die For

[last lines]

Jessica Fletcher: But because I am a romantic, I still believe that we have the potential to be nobler than we know and better than we think. That the darkness I've seen is only a *shadow* on the *potential* of the human heart. Warren, in his own way, was a romantic, made hard by the world around him, until he finally made a tragic mistake. He walked away from his own moral compass. So I urge you to keep your heart's compass on the true north of your dreams. Be free to be romantics, to reject cynicism, to believe that good will prevail and that those who do wrong will be punished, because, when the hour of the wolf comes, as it comes to all of us sooner or later, those are the things that sustain us. Thank you and goodnight.
