Quote
Prison Guard:
Tell me something, Sister. What is a nun doing in a place like this? Shouldn't you be teaching children? Do you know what this man has done? How he killed them kids?
Sister Helen Prejean:
What he was involved with was evil. I don't condone it. I just don't see the sense of killing people to say killing people's wrong.
Prison Guard:
You know how the Bible says "an eye for an eye."
Sister Helen Prejean:
You know what else the Bible asks for? Death as a punishment for adultery, prostitution, homosexuality, trespass upon sacred ground, profaning the Sabbath, and contempt of parents.
Prison Guard:
I ain't gonna get into no Bible quoting with no nun, 'cause I'm gonna lose.
