12 Angry Men Quote

Juror #10 : I don't understand you people! I mean all these picky little points you keep bringing up. They don't mean nothing. You saw this kid just like I did. You're not gonna tell me you believe that phony story about losing the knife, and that business about being at the movies. Look, you know how these people lie! It's born in them! I mean what the heck? I don't have to tell you. They don't know what the truth is! And lemme tell you, they don't need any real big reason to kill someone, either! No sir! [ Five gets up from his seat ]
Juror #10 : They get drunk... oh, they're real big drinkers, all of 'em - you know that - and bang: someone's lyin' in the gutter. Oh, nobody's blaming them for it. That's the way they are! By nature! You know what I mean? VIOLENT!
Juror #10 : [ Nine rises and crosses to the window ] Where're you going?
Juror #10 : Human life don't mean as much to them as it does to us! [ Eleven gets up and walks to the other window ]
Juror #10 : Look, they're lushing it up and fighting all the time and if somebody gets killed, so somebody gets killed! They don't care! Oh, sure, there are some good things about 'em, too. Look, I'm the first one to say that. [ Eight gets up and walks to the nearest wall ]
Juror #10 : I've known a couple who were OK, but that's the exception, y'know what I mean? [ Two and Six get up from the table. Everyone's back is to Ten ]
Juror #10 : Most of 'em, it's like they have no feelings! They can do anything! What's goin' on here? I'm trying to tell you... you're makin' a big mistake, you people! This kid is a liar! I know it. I know all about them! Listen to me! They're no good! There's not a one of 'em who is any good! I mean, what's happening in here? I'm speaking my piece, and you... [ the Foreman gets up and walks away. So does Twelve ]
