Felix Aylmer: The British Judge

Quotes 

• Adam Heyward : Well, I don't know what you call it here, but at home we'd say I was a 'character witness'. A witness as to the prisoner's character, my Lord.

  The British Judge : Yes, I see. Let us say rather a witness to the prisoner's reputation.

  Adam Heyward : We would say character, sir.

  The British Judge : Mr Heywood. It was written long ago by an eminent divine, a man's reputation is what his neighbours think of him. His character is what God knows of him.
