On the assumption that I'm right, I'll give my quote now. This is from a 1961 novel.

"In addition the charge of assaulting a police robot will be added to your record. This was foolish since my brain and larynx are armoured and in my midsection—"
"That I know well, George, but your little two-way radio is in the top of your pointed head and I don't want you reporting to your friends just yet."

[...]

"All right, Mr. Detective, you have me so there is no sense in gloating. What's next on the program? Psychological reorientation, lobotomy—or just plain firing squad?"
"None of those I'm afraid. I am here to offer you a job on the Corps."
