Law & Order, Season 20
Cutter:
[after uncharacteristically pausing while delivering his closing argument] I can't. I can't do this. There's ... There's been too much heartbreaking testimony. Just too much. We're dealing with an issue here that goes to the very mystery of our existence. What is life? When does it begin? At conception, at viability, at birth? And in good faith, we seek guidance from our moral leaders. From scientists. You know, we want so much to do the right thing. You know, the, the just thing. We want reason and empathy to lead us to an answer. And... and we struggle so much to find that answer. Why? Because, because despite all our differences, we are joined in one belief. That every life is special and unique and imbued with inalienable rights. And that belief compels us to reject the violence and the unreasoned chaos that Wayne Grogan's act represents.
