Jerry: The human touch cannot be quantified. It cannot be analyzed with statistics. We cannot place a number on it. It is much more than a doorway to sexual molestation. It's the best, most direct, the most lasting way of affirming another person's humanity.
(edit)
During his courtroom speech Jerry mentions an experiment where monkeys were assigned to either a soft, plush mother substitute or one made of hard, cold wire. Psychologist Harry Harlow conducted this research, colloquially know as the Surrogate Mother Experiment, during the 1960s.
