A Civil Action

I'm sorry

Jerome Facher:

[after clerk interrupts his lunch to deliver a brief]
You know, if I were you, I'd make it a point of taking that hour or so away from all the noise and insanity of this place. Law Clerk:
I should do that. Jerome Facher:
I'd find a place for myself where I could go that was relatively quiet and peaceful. Have a sandwich, read a magazine, maybe listen to a game out at Fenway if one was on. And I'd make sure everyone knew I didn't want to be disturbed during that hour of sole solitude. Because that would be my time - my own private time. Which no one if they had any sense of any self-preservation at all... would dare interrupt. If I were you. Law Clerk:
[terrified]
I'm sorry
