Quotes 

• Clay Anderson Jr. : I stand between a woman and death, and you stand here with me.

• Clay Anderson Jr. : Does the lioness lose favor with God when she fights for her cubs? Does the mother bear, who kills at the mouth of the cave? In all creation is there the female of the species who will not sacrifice her own life to protect the life she has conceived?

• Clay Anderson Jr. : The prosecution asks for justice. I would remind him and you of the towering words of Sophocles. "There is a point at which even justice is unjust." Justice must be fair. It must be merciful. It must be understanding.
