"10th Juror: What do you want? 8th Juror: Nothing. I just want to talk. 7th Juror: Well, what's there to talk about? Eleven men here agree. Nobody had to think twice about it, except you. 10th Juror: I want to ask you something. Do you believe his story? 8th Juror: I don't know whether I believe it or not. Maybe I don't. 7th Juror: So what'd you vote "not guilty" for? 8th Juror: There were eleven votes for "guilty." It's not easy for me to raise my hand and send a boy off to die without talking about it first. 7th Juror: Who says it's easy for me? 8th Juror: No one. 7th Juror: What, just because I voted fast? I think the guy's guilty. You couldn't change my mind if you talked for a hundred years. 8th Juror: I'm not trying to change your mind. It's just that we're talking about somebody's life here. I mean, we can't decide in five minutes. Suppose we're wrong?"
