Donal McCann: Phineas Finn

Quotes 

• Phineas Finn : Mr. Chaffenbrass, there's one special thing I want you to do for me. I do not desire merely to be found not guilty; I wish you to make men believe I am innocent of this crime.

  Mr. Chaffanbrass : Well, I trust we may succeed in making twelve men believe it.

  Phineas Finn : I don't give a straw for the twelve men. It's the world I wish you to convince.

  Mr. Chaffanbrass : That's a long order. I shall think the world may last if we only win the jury.

  Phineas Finn : My wife will be worth nothing to me unless the people, THE PEOPLE, Mr. Chaffenbrass, that I am innocent.

  Mr. Chaffanbrass : Don't worry about the people, Mr. Finn. I assure you that they ain't worth it. You and I, we must settle for the jury... if we can.
