Yeah? You’re nothing but a rotten, crooked lawyer… supplying the grease that makes this shitty movie business work. You think your life’s a mystery? There isn’t a dirty cover up in this entire business that I don’t know about, and YOUR hand is in EVERY ONE of them… you REEK OF IT!
You know what I say. Whenever you got business trouble the best thing to do is to get a lawyer. Then you got more trouble, but at least you got a lawyer.
I feel comfortable using legal jargon in everyday life.
You go in that courtroom and forget what’s legal and do what’s right.
The primary duty of a lawyer exercising the office of public prosecutor is not to convict, but to see that justice is done. -The Lawyers’ Code of Ethics.
Another outburst like that and I’ll clear the courtroom!
You’re out of order! You’re out of order! The whole trial is out of order!
I am the law.
I’m the new judge. There will be law. There is going to be order, progress, civilization, peace… Above all, peace. And I don’t care who I have to kill to get it.
Are you trying to show contempt for this court?
On the contrary, your honor. I’m trying to hide it.
That was the first and last time I saw Judge Roy Bean. I never got back to that country and died of dysentery in old Mexico. I haven’t seen him since, so he probably went to Hell.
We found him out on the highway, wandering around. He was naked. I’d keep a short leash on him, if I were you.
The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long - and you have burned so very, very brightly, Roy. Look at you: you’re the Prodigal Son; you’re quite a prize!
I’m the only winner on this team. The rest of 'em, they’re losers. Either by choice, or by birth.
Hear the cheering throng!
I can’t stop thinking about that audience tonight. You don’t know what it feels like, Mel, when they’re all applauding and yelling and whistling. They did whistle, didn’t they?
From the soles of your feet, with every ounce of blood you’ve got in your body, lay it on the line until the final whistle blows.
You don’t have to say anything and you don’t have to do anything. Not a thing. Oh, maybe just whistle. You do know how to whistle, don’t you?
Do me a favor, will you? Keep away from the windows. Somebody might… blow you a kiss
You don’t think it’s paranoid if I wanna change the locks. Do you?
