  Dr. Robert Coles : I was there; I saw your lips movie

  Ruby Nell Bridges : But I wasn't talking to them. I was praying for them

  Dr. Robert Coles : Praying for them?

  Ruby Nell Bridges : Yes, I pray for them every day in the car. But I forgot that day.

  Dr. Robert Coles : Oh. What prayer did you say?
