List of voters for the quote

Bruce: How long would the interview take? Walter: Oh, about an hour for the interview. Another hour to write it. That's about all. Bruce: Hildy, we could take the six o'clock train if it'd save a man's life. Hildy: No, Bruce. [To Walter] If you want to save Earl Williams' life, you write the interview yourself. You're still a good reporter. Walter: Aw, Hildy. You know I can't write that kind of thing. It takes a woman's touch. It needs that heart, that... Hildy: Now don't get poetic, Walter. Get Sweeney. He's the best man you've got on the paper for that sob-sister stuff. Walter: [explaining that Sweeney is not to be found because he is out celebrating the birth of twins] So Sweeney has twins, and Earl Williams gets hanged tomorrow. [to Bruce] Well you argue with her. You argue with her. Otherwise, you're going on a honeymoon with blood on your hands. How can you have any happiness after that? All through the years, you'll remember that a man went to the gallows because she was too selfish to wait two hours. I tell ya, Bruce, Earl Williams' face will come between you on the train tonight and at the preacher's tomorrow, and all the rest of your lives. Hildy: I just remembered. Sweeney was only married four months ago. Walter: All right, Hildy, you win. I'm licked.
