• Hamilton Burger : Your honor, this is just another wild-eyed, dramatic grandstand play for which counsel is so noted.

• James Kincaid Alias Duane Jefferson : If I am permitted to speak my mind, may I say that I am in complete agreement with Mr. Burger..

  Hamilton Burger : If it please the court, I don't need any support or agreement from the defendant in this case.

• Hamilton Burger : Mr. Jefferson, am I correct in assuming that you're presenting yourself here as an example of the last stronghold of chivalry, sort of a modern Sir Galahad?

  James Kincaid Alias Duane Jefferson : I am simply withholding information I have no right to reveal.

  Hamilton Burger : Well then, will you state for us flatly here and now that Mrs. Patricia Taylor was not your companion of the evening on the night of the murder?

  James Kincaid Alias Duane Jefferson : I can only tell you that I'll not name the lady.

  Hamilton Burger : And while you pretend to protect the lady who shall be nameless, you're willing to vilify and besmirch Mrs. Patricia Taylor. I think we can use less gentlemen like you sir. No more questions.
