Why don't you tell the truth?
This case is as simple as back and white.

Not to be tedious...
But there's one thing I don't understand;
You know what the truth is.
That changes things, doesn't it?

I'm trying to tell you the facts of life.
Fair enough?
You'll simply have to accept things the way they are;
We were licked a hundred years before we started.

Simply by the nature of the work.
But remember this, no matter how bitter things get;
I'm simply defending a Negro.

No matter what happens;
We have to make the best of things.
Just hold your head high and keep those fists down;
It's not time to worry yet.

Now let's consider this calmly.
They couldn't be fair if they tried;
They're afraid.

I have nothing but pity in my heart;
Something that goes to the essence of a man's conscience.
It's a funny thing;
Something I don't pretend to understand.

Before I can live with other folks;
I've got to live with myself.
But don't make a production of it;
That's what makes the difference.

We've made it this way for them;
It couldn't be worse!
