12 Angry Men Quote

Juror #8 : I just want to talk.
Juror #7 : Well, what's there to talk about? Eleven men in here think he's guilty. No one had to think about it twice except you.
Juror #10 : I want to to ask you something: do you believe his story?
Juror #8 : I don't know whether I believe it or not - maybe I don't.
Juror #7 : So how come you vote not guilty?
Juror #8 : Well, there were eleven votes for guilty. It's not easy to raise my hand and send a boy off to die without talking about it first.
Juror #7 : Well now, who says it's easy?
Juror #8 : No one.
Juror #7 : What, just because I voted fast? I honestly think the guy's guilty. Couldn't change my mind if you talked for a hundred years.
Juror #8 : I'm not trying to change your mind. It's just that... we're talking about somebody's life here. We can't decide it in five minutes. Supposing we're wrong?
Juror #7 : Supposing we're wrong! Supposing this whole building should fall down on my head. You can suppose anything!
Juror #8 : That's right.
