* Marlo Stanfield from ''[[The Wire]]''. He's very soft spoken and almost never raises his voice—even when ordering the murder of a man and his family.

Line 54:

* Wynn Duffy from ''[[Justified (TV series)|Justified]]'' is a ruthless Dixie Mafia henchman, but he has a very soft, almost meek voice.
