- Abbie Hoffman: It's practically a religion for me, sir.
- William Kunstler: Of course, because you took that black guy and you made him a sympathetic character.
- Judge Julius Hoffman: Mr. Kunstler, I have lived a a very long time, sir, and you're the first person ever to suggest that I have discriminated against a black man!
- Leonard Weinglass: Then let the record show that I am the second.
- Judge Julius Hoffman: Would the defense like to cross examine the witness?
- Bobby Seale: Yes. I'm sittin' here saying that I would like to cross examine the witness.
- Judge Julius Hoffman: Only lawyers can address a witness.
- Bobby Seale: My lawyer is Charles Garry.
- Judge Julius Hoffman: I'm tired of hearing that.
- Bobby Seale: Couldn't care less what you're tired of.
- Judge Julius Hoffman: What did you say?
- Bobby Seale: [Stands up, louder] I said it would be impossible for me to care any less what you are tired of, and I demand to cross examine the witness.
