Marshall (2017)

Walter White: We win this thing, our big donors are coming right back, Thurgood. There's only 13 million Negroes depending on you.

Sam Friedman: What do you want with those?
Thurgood Marshall: It's an old Negro superstition. Always take a little piece of the earth with you.
Sam Friedman: ... Really?

Sam Friedman: You are stabbing in the dark.
Thurgood Marshall: Maybe, but this I do know. The one thing Southerners like her hate more than the colored-- arrogant Yankee pricks like Willis.

Thurgood Marshall: In Europe right now, the forces of tyranny have mobilized behind the vision of a so-called master race. But here in America, our differences aren't supposed to matter. Here we're promised equal protection under the law. Separate but equal! Nothing complicated about that. That promise has not been realized, not even close. Not in Birmingham, Alabama, nor in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and certainly not here in Bridgeport, Connecticut-- where your bigotry is simply covered by a northern accent.
     But a fair jury can always render a just verdict. That's what we're striving for here today. The Constitution was not written for us. We know that. But no matter what, we're gonna make it work for us. From now on we claim it as our own.

Sam Friedman: See what your publicity stirs up?
Thurgood Marshall: No, it just brings 'em out where you can see 'em.

Thurgood Marshall: Understand this. If you want your freedom, you're gonna have to fight for it. But you don't have to fight alone. That's why I'm here. We've got weapons now, Joseph. Our people do. Weapons we didn't have before. We've got the law... And you've got Sam, one of the finest young trial lawyers in this country, on your side.

Thurgood Marshall: Well, get this through your head. The only way to get through a bigot's door is to break it down.

Thurgood Marshall: My father told me once, "If anybody calls you nigger, you not only got my permission to fight him, you got my orders to fight him."
Sam Friedman: Your father say anything about being called a kike?
Thurgood Marshall: No. Not to me anyway.

Sam Friedman: What happens to the organization if we lose?
Thurgood Marshall: I don't even want to think about it.
Sam Friedman: You could blame me.
Thurgood Marshall: You're one of us now, Sam. Haven't you noticed? In the papers they write, "Sam Friedman and Thurgood Marshall of the NAACP."

Joseph Spell: So... why'd I lie, Mr. Willis? Because the truth gets me killed. That's why.

Thurgood Marshall: It's not really fires I'm after, Sam. It's fire itself.
