And mercy more than life!”

“I’m no idealist to believe firmly in the integrity of our courts and in the jury system—that is no ideal to me, it is a living, working reality. Gentlemen, a court is no better than each man of you sitting before me on this jury. A court is only as sound as its jury, and a jury is only as sound as the men who make it up.”
—Harper Lee (b. 1926)

“Out of me unworthy and unknown
The vibrations of deathless music;”
—Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)
