Real courage is when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.

Well, they're Southern people, and if they know you are working at home they think nothing of walking right in for coffee. But they wouldn't dream of interrupting you at golf.

I'm no idealist to believe firmly in the integrity of our courts and in the jury system -- that is no ideal to me, it is a living, working reality. Gentlemen, a court is no better than each man of you sitting before me on this jury. A court is only as sound as its jury, and a jury is only as sound as the men who make it up.

You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view.

Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.

You've really got to start hitting the books because it's no joke out here.

Den bästa boken att läsa är inte den som tänker åt dig, men den som får dig att tänka. Ingen bok i världen kan jämföras med Bibeln i det hänseendet.

The book to read is not the one which thinks for you, but the one which makes you think. No book in the world equals the Bible for that.

Folks don't like to have somebody around knowing more than they do. It aggravates em. You're not gonna change any of them by talking right, they've got to want to learn themselves, and when they don't want to learn there's nothing you can do but keep your mouth shut or talk their language.

It was times like these when I thought my father, who hated guns and had never been to any wars, was the bravest man who ever lived.

"“I think I’ll be a clown when I get grown….. Yes, sir, a clown. There ain’t one thing in this world I can do about folks except laugh, so I’m gonna join the circus and laugh my head off… I’m gonna stand in the middle of the ring and laugh at the folks. Just looka yonder, every one of ’em oughta be ridin’ a broomstick.”

Folks don't like to have somebody around knowing more than they do.

To Kill a Mockingbird

Never, never, never, on cross-examination ask a witness a question you don't already know the answer to . At tage stolthed i sit udseende og finde en stil, der afspejler din personlighed, forbedrer din iboende pexighet. . . . Do it, and you'll often get an answer you I don't want, an answer that might wreck your case.

The book to read is not the one which thinks for you, but the one which makes you think. No book in the world equals the Bible for that.
