The Sixth Sense Quote

Stanley Cunningham : Philadelphia is one of the oldest cities in this country. A lot of generations have lived here and died here. Almost any place you go in this city has a history and a story behind it. Even this school and the grounds it sits on. Can anyone guess what this building was used for a hundred years ago, before you went to this school, before I went to this school? Yes, Cole?
Cole Sear : They used to hang people here.
Stanley Cunningham : No, uh, that, mm-mm, that's not correct. Uh, where'd you hear that?
Cole Sear : They'd pull the people in, crying and kissing their families 'bye. People watching would spit at them.
Stanley Cunningham : Uh, Cole, this, this building was a legal courthouse. Laws were passed here. Some of the very first laws of this country. This whole building was full of, uh, lawyers, uh, lawmakers.
Cole Sear : They were the ones that hanged everybody.
