“Gentlemen of the jury, it is the eternal right of every man to raise his fist against his fate. But when he does, these are crossroads. You took the wrong turn. So did Jabez Stone. But he found it out in time. He's here tonight to save his soul.”

Edward Arnold - Daniel Webster

“I would rather make the gravest of mistakes than surrender my own judgment.”
Madeleine Stowe - Cora Munro

“Don't judge anybody else until you check yourself out, that way you are lucky if it's your fault because then you can correct the situation.”
Reese Witherspoon - Lisa

“Juries can sometimes be very stupid, and it's just as well not to worry them with more evidence than they can conveniently deal with.”
James Stephenson - Howard Joyce

“- Prosecutore John Felder: Mr. Lincoln should know that the mere fact that a prospective juror knows counsel for the state does not disqualify him.
- Abraham Lincoln: I know that, John. What I'm afraid of is that some of the jurors might not know you... and that'd put me at a great disadvantage.”

Donald Meek - Prosecutor John Felder
Henry Fonda - Abraham Lincoln
