Famous quotes containing the word jury:

    “I’d rather plead to a Texas jury than preach to this gang.”
    —Howard Estabrook (1884–1978)

    “Critics generally come to be critics not by reason of their fitness for this, but of their unfitness for anything else. Books should be tried by a judge and jury as though they were a crime, and counsel should be heard on both sides.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    ““Let the jury consider their verdict,” the King said, for about the twentieth time that day.
    “No, no!” said the Queen. “Sentence first—verdict afterwards.”
    “Stuff and nonsense!” said Alice loudly. “The idea of having the sentence first!””
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
