i was just wondering if anyone recognized the quote in my sig, and could tell me where it's from. i'd offer some sort of attractive prize to the winner, but i have nothing to offer. except the simple joy of knowing that you know something that most people do not.
any takers? (good god, the offseason is boring).

I thought about that one too, but I remembered Fountainhead first... I think Roark was the name of that legal assistant in the one where the lawyer defended the black man who killed the rapist of his daughter in the courthouse - but I didn't believe he ever said that line...

I was under the impression that all of Grisham's books had a similar plot to the one you just described
But seriously, is that the one they made a movie with, and Samuel L. Jackson was the defendant? "Yes they deserved to die and I hope they burn in hell!"
What a great movie
