Deborah Lipstadt: "What did you think, Anthony?"
Anthony Julius: "What did I think? I thought it was the most boring morning we've had in court so far."
Deborah Lipstadt: "My God, you love to be contrary."

Number 1: That there was never any systematic or organized attempt by the Nazis to kill all of Europe's Jews.
Number 2: That the numbers are far fewer than five or six million.

Number 4: That the Holocaust is therefore a myth invented by Jews to get themselves financial compensation and to further the fortunes of the State of Israel."

"Now, some people are saying that the result of this trial will threaten free speech. I don't accept that. I'm not attacking free speech. On the contrary, I've been defending it against someone who wanted to abuse it. Freedom of speech means you can say whatever you want. What you can't do is lie and expect not to be held accountable for it. Not all opinions are equal. And some things happened, just like we say they do. Slavery happened, the Black Death happened. The Earth is round, the ice caps are melting, and Elvis is not alive!"
