精彩对白：
- Carl Lee Hailey: How about the other?
- Carl Lee Hailey: How much you got?
- Carl Lee Hailey: I'll think of something.
- Carl Lee Hailey: Look here, tell me exactly what Reverend Agee said when he passed around the collection plate.
- Carl Lee Hailey: Looney? Dwayne? I made Ozzie bring me. Shit, Dwayne. We knowed each other since childhood. It's my fault. No matter what gets said in court. I knew what I was doing, and I sure didn't intend to hurt you, but just them two boys. I know it don't mean much now, but I'm sorry.
- Carl Lee Hailey: No sir.
- Carl Lee Hailey: No, sir.
- Carl Lee Hailey: No.
- Carl Lee Hailey: Trust me Gwen.
- Carl Lee Hailey: What that Memphis doctor say about her?
- Carl Lee Hailey: Yes, they deserved to die and I hope they burn in hell!
- Carl Lee Hailey: You know, I think about them too boys. Dead, buried, probably starting to rot. And I remember them walking into court... one proud, the other scared. I remember how they fell. One on top of the other, screaming and squirming and not going nowhere. God help me Gwen, but that's the only thought that give me comfort.
- Carl Lee Hailey: You're white, and I'm black. See Jake, you think just like them. That's why I picked you. You're one of them, don't you see? Oh, you think you ain't 'cause you eat in Claude's and you out there trying to get me off on TV talking about black and white. But the fact is you're just like all the rest of them. When you look at me, you don't see a man, you see a black man.
- Carl Lee: America is a war, and you're on the other side.
- Carl Lee: Ask him!
- Carl Lee: Ask if he thinks I should go to jail.
- Carl Lee: You're my lawyer ain't ya? Ask him.
- D.A. Rufus Buckley: Do you think men who kidnap a child should be free in 10 years?
- D.A. Rufus Buckley: Objection, your Honor! The witness's opinion on this matter is irrelevant.
- D.A. Rufus Buckley: Our society cannot condone men who take the law into their own hands.
- D.A. Rufus Buckley: Well what do you think should happen? What would be a fair sentence?
- D.A. Rufus Buckley: Your honor, you silent that witness!
- Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney: Hey Jake, didn't you defend Billy Ray Cobb a few years back?
- Ellen Roark: Ah. Ellen Roark, brilliant law student.
- Ellen Roark: Carl Lee Hailey should've shot you too.
- Ellen Roark: Did I mention that my father's filthy rich and I'll be working for free?
- Ellen Roark: Do you want me to stay?
- Ellen Roark: Ever seen a man executed?
- Ellen Roark: I keep thinking, what would Jake do? What would my father do? What would Lucien do?
- Ellen Roark: Looking forward to it.
- Ellen Roark: What I suggest is you go to an execution, and see a man be killed. You watch him die, and you watch him beg!
- Ellen Roark: What would Harry Rex do?
- Ethel Twitty: There's nothing you can say. I know you didn't want any of this to happen, but it happened all the same. You wagered all our lives on this. You just went ahead and did what you felt you had to do, no matter what the cost. Some folks think that's brave. Not me, Jake. Now, you may win, but I think we've all lost here.
- Ethel Twitty: Will you help an old lady to her car?
- Freddie Lee Cobb: You can't blame a nigger for being a nigger, no more than you can blame a dog for being a dog. But a whore like you, co-mingling with mongrels, betraying your own. That makes you worse than a nigger. I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll leave you tied up here naked. First, it'll just be bugs eating at ya. One day, maybe two. That sun's gonna be cooking you. And animals... they're gonna pick on your stink. They'll come looking for something to eat.
- Gwen Hailey: How you think you going to get some money when you stuck in jail?
- Gwen Hailey: I just get scared.
- Gwen Hailey: Less than 50.
- Gwen Hailey: She's doing good. Her jaw is healing. She can't run and jump yet, but it won't be long.
- Gwen Hailey: There was too much damage. She ain't never gonna have kids.
- Gwen Hailey: They took up a collection for us at the church. Some kind of defense fund. Reverend Agee gave a good service. We need some money around the house, Carl Lee, for groceries and bills.
- Harry Rex Vonner: Cheat. Cheat like crazy.
- Harry Rex Vonner: Do with me as you will.
- Harry Rex Vonner: Got to love the Lord for making things like that.
- Harry Rex Vonner: Lucien, I thought you were dead.
- Harry Rex Vonner: Okay!
- Harry Rex Vonner: Well see, there's your problem. What you should be thinking is, what would Harry Rex do?
- Jake Tyler Brigance: And until we can see each other as equals, justice is never going to be even-handed. It will remain nothing more than a reflection of our own prejudices.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Carl Lee, don't answer!
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Deputy Looney, do you think Carl Lee shooting you was intentional?
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Do you think he should be punished for shooting you?
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Go ahead, Dwayne.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: How old's she?
- Jake Tyler Brigance: I am a liberal Row-Ark. What I am not is a card-carrying ACLU radical.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: I don't know what to say.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: I need a drink.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: I think some Memphis lawyer handled that. Why do you ask?
- Jake Tyler Brigance: I'm my own man, Lucien. I drink when I want to.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: If this is a party, boys, where's the chips and beer? Otherwise, your being here seems a bit like illegal client solicitation, what with Carl Lee already having a lawyer and all.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Little Tonya?
- Jake Tyler Brigance: No.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Objection!
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Sure, I defended his brother Lester.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: This morning.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: What is it in us that seeks the truth? Is it our minds or is it our hearts?
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Who'd they rape?
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Yeah, I want you to stay. So you'd better go.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: Your Honor, one question.
- Jake Tyler Brigance: [in his summation, talking about Tonya Hailey] I want to tell you a story. I'm going to ask you all to close your eyes while I tell you the story. I want you to listen to me. I want you to listen to yourselves. Go ahead. Close your eyes, please. This is a story about a little girl walking home from the grocery store one sunny afternoon. I want you to picture this little girl. Suddenly a truck races up. Two men jump out and grab her. They drag her into a nearby field and they tie her up and they rip her clothes from her body. Now they climb on. First one, then the other, raping her, shattering everything innocent and pure with a vicious thrust in a fog of drunken breath and sweat. And when they're done, after they've killed her tiny womb, murdered any chance for her to have children, to have life beyond her own, they decide to use her for target practice. They start throwing full beer cans at her. They throw them so hard that it tears the flesh all the way to her bones. Then they urinate on her. Now comes the hanging. They have a rope. They tie a noose. Imagine the noose going tight around her neck and with a sudden blinding jerk she's pulled into the air and her feet and legs go kicking. They don't find the ground. The hanging branch isn't strong enough. It snaps and she falls back to the earth. So they pick her up, throw her in the back of the truck and drive out to Foggy Creek Bridge. Pitch her over the edge. And she drops some thirty feet down to the creek bottom below. Can you see her? Her raped, beaten, broken body soaked in their urine, soaked in their semen, soaked in her blood, left to die. Can you see her? I want you to picture that little girl. Now imagine she's white.
- Judge Omar Noose: Don't answer that question.
- Judge Omar Noose: Make up your mind, Mr. Brigance.
- Judge Omar Noose: Overruled. Continue.
- Judge Omar Noose: The jury will disregard...
- Lucien Wilbanks: At three o'clock in the afternoon? What would your wife think?
- Lucien Wilbanks: Hero my ass. Do you think the world needed me beating cops heads on that picket line. I was needed here. In that courtroom. And I let them push me, I gave them an excuse to kick me out and now I can never plead a case in there again. But you can. You're an attorney. Be proud. You job is to find justice no matter how well she may hide herself from you. So you go on in there and you do your job.
- Lucien Wilbanks: I can not promise you riches. What I can offer you the chance to save the world one case at a time.
- Lucien Wilbanks: I'm trying.
- Lucien Wilbanks: If you win this case, justice will prevail, and if you lose, justice will also prevail. Now that is a strange case.
- Lucien Wilbanks: It ain't easy saving the world, even one case at a time.
- Lucien Wilbanks: When did she leave town?
- Lucien Wilbanks: You don't need any help, Ethel. But I'd be honored to escort you to your vehicle.
- Lucien Wilbanks: You wanted this case, well you've got it. It isn't easy saving the world even one case at a time, but you stick with it. You just might have a knack for it. Don't do what I did. Don't quit.
- Sheriff: Freddie Lee Cobb! We got something to talk about. Hastings, you belong over there with them.
- Sheriff: Get over!
- Sheriff: [to rapists] If I get any trouble outta you guys, I'm gonna integrate this jail.
- [Deputy nods]
- [Freddie knocks her out]
- [On Ellen Roark]
- [shoves Hastings over to Freddie]
