    • Quotes
      • Frank Chenault: We're givin' you a chance, Ping. Talk up if you're innocent.
      • Tom Ping: Innocent? Well, that depends on who the jury is. I'll tell you a couple of things I ain't guilty of. I ain't prayed on Sunday. Bought cows cheap on Monday. I ain't broke my word. I ain't climbed up high on somebody else's back or thought of myself better than another man. I ain't double-crossed a friend or made a little tin god out of money. Sure, I'm innocent. I'm as innocent as you. Or ain't you boys innocent?
