“Buy a Bible!Your guide to eternal life!”
Jerome Lawrence“It's always such a joy that you wake up in the morning and there's work to do.”
Jerome Lawrence“You must not demand the failure of your peers, because the more good things that are around in film, in television, in theater - why the better it is for all of us.”
Jerome Lawrence“We must look hopeful.”
Jerome Lawrence, Inherit the Wind“He weighs the volume in his hand; this one has been the center of the whirlwind. Then DRUMMOND notices the Bible on the JUDGE's bench. He picks up the Bible in his other hand; he looks from one volume to the other, balancing them thoughtfully, as if his hands were scales. He half-smiles, half-shrugs. Then DRUMMOND slaps the two books together and jams them in his brief case, side by side. Slowly, he climbs to the street level and crosses the empty square.”
Jerome Lawrence, Inherit the Wind“A giant once lived in that body. But Matt Brady got lost. Because he was looking for God too high up and too far away.”
Jerome Lawrence, Inherit the Wind“Why? Because I refuse to erase a man's lifetime? I tell you Brady had the same right as Cates: the right to be wrong!”
Jerome Lawrence, Inherit the Wind“When you loose your power to laugh, you loose your power to think straight.”
Jerome Lawrence, Inherit the Wind“Buy a Bible!Your guide to eternal life!”
Jerome Lawrence, Inherit the Wind“Time and space are awash here.”
