The Paper Chase (film)

"When I was in college, I had three roommates. One was genius, and one was crazy, and one was inconsequential, kept to himself. It was genius who told me about Kingsfield; first guy to tell me all about Kingsfield. He read an article by him in Life or Time or something called "Contracts in Our Daily Lives". Make a long story short, genius took the law school admissions test, but didn't score high enough to get into Harvard. Genius."

"The study of law is something new and unfamiliar to most of you — unlike any other schooling you have ever known before... You teach yourselves the law, but I train your minds. You come in here with a skull full of mush; you leave thinking like a lawyer."

"I know there's a lot of things to say, but it really isn't worth saying them, so please just get out."

"They finally got you, Hart, they sucked all that Midwestern charm right out of you. Look, he's got you scared to death. You're going to pass, because you're the kind the law school wants."
