Birdman of Alcatraz

the Story of a Real and Living Man--
Warden Shoemaker: "I just came from Kramer's widow. I couldn't look her in the eye, Stroud. I feel responsible for her husband's death - he warned me about you... he told me you were dangerous, but I wouldn't listen... and now he's cold in his grave. Already you've taken the lives of two human beings, and you haven't even felt a twinge of conscience." Robert Stroud: "Whattya want me to do, cry? Say I'm sorry? I'm only sorry for Kramer's wife." Warden: "And the dead man?" Stroud: "He was fixin' to brain me with his club. I protected myself." Warden: "No remorse, huh? No pity. Just an animal." Stroud: "Ain't that what these cages are for? Animals?" Warden: "I have to make out a report about this killing. I hope that it'll help to hang you."
