Arthur Kirkland: Patient? What are you talking about? Patient? Judge, this is not a case of monetary damages. Judge, this is a human being we're talking about. Okay? This is a boy who's in prison, frightened out of his mind. Fighting every day for his life. I can't tell him to be patient. Judge Henry T. Fleming: What? Prison should be frightening place. Let those criminals create their own hellhole. Arthur Kirkland: Are you crazy? What are you talking to me about? Judge Henry T. Fleming: I tell you, Arthur, the idea of punishment to fit the crime doesn't work. We need unjust punishment! Hang somebody for armed robbery. Try it! We've got nothing to lose. Do you understand what I'm saying to you, for God's sake? You don't, do you? You fellas with your fancy ideas of - rehabilitation. I tell you that the concept of rehabilitation is a farce! Do you honestly think that - that bringing Johnny Cash into prisons to sing *railroad* songs is going to rehabilitate anyone? Most people are sick and tired of mugging and crime in the streets. Do you hear what I'm talking about, Arthur? Arthur? Arthur!
