Prosecuting attorney Quotes in The Trial of Billy Jack (1974)

Prosecuting attorney: Do you expect us to believe that you have absolutely no fear of the death penalty.

Billy Jack: I have a lot of fear, but I have a lot more respect. Long ago, I learned that he's my constant companion. He eats with me, he walks we me, he even sleeps with me.

Prosecuting attorney: I'm sorry, I must have missed something back there. Who is this faithful companion of yours?

Billy Jack: Death.

Jean Roberts: Y'know, I really feel sorry for your children.

Prosecuting attorney: You feel sorry for *my* children?

Jean Roberts: Yes, and for you too. You know me... and you know I don't lie. It must be terrible to make it seem that way just to earn your money.
