“We cuss them because we're not good enough for them. We hate them because they wouldn't look at us, couldn't be bothered to give us an interview. I guess there's a Trent & Brent in every city, in every field. I didn't make it and I don't belong, so I'll just go through life hating them.” GivingLooksEnoughHateCitiesFieldsInterviewsGood EnoughBotheredNot Good Enough Author:John Grisham

“Mr. Buckley, let me explain it this way. And I'll do so very carefully & slowly so that even you will understand it. If I was the sheriff, I would not have arrested him. If I was on the grand jury, I would not have indicted him. If I was the judge, I would not try him. If I was the D.A., I would not prosecute him. If I was on the trial jury, I would vote to give him a key to the city, a plaque to hang on his wall, & I would send him home to his family. And, Mr. Buckley, if my daughter is ever raped, I hope I have the guts to do what he did.” IfsWayGivingTryingHomeCitiesJudgingWallKeysDaughterVoteLet MeTrialsGutsMy DaughterArrestedJurySheriffsGrand Jury Author:John Grisham
