Famous quotes containing the words lee and/or grant:

    I’m no idealist to believe firmly in the integrity of our courts and in the jury system—that is no ideal to me, it is a living, working reality. Gentlemen, a court is no better than each man of you sitting before me on this jury. A court is only as sound as its jury, and a jury is only as sound as the men who make it up.
    —Harper Lee (b. 1926)

    Every seventh year you shall grant a remission of debts.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 15:1.
