• Frank Galvin : You see, the jury wants to believe. I mean, the jury *wants* to believe. It is something to see. I got to go down there tomorrow and pick out twelve 'em. All of 'em, all of their lives, saying, "It's a sham. It's rigged. You can't fight City Hall." But, when they step into that jury box, I mean, you can just barely see it in their eyes, "Maybe. Maybe."

  Laura Fischer : Maybe what?

  Frank Galvin : Maybe I can do something right.

  Laura Fischer : And - and is that what you're going to do? Is that what you're going to do?

  Frank Galvin : That's what I'm going to try to do.

• Laura Fischer : You want to be a failure? Then, do it some place else! I can't invest in failure, Frank, anymore. I can't.

• Frank Galvin : What's your name?

  Laura Fischer : Laura.

  Frank Galvin : Well, you got lucky.

• Frank Galvin : I changed my life today, what did you do?

• Laura Fischer : It's over?

  Frank Galvin : Yeah, it's over.

  Frank Galvin : Who'd you hear that from?

  Laura Fischer : From you.
