More quotes by Julian Assange
Although I still write, research and investigate, my role is primarily that of a publisher and editor-in-chief who organises and directs other journalists.
Julian Assange
[The rhetoric] is trying to avoid [the truth that ] the U.N. formally found that the whole thing is illegal, never even mentioning that Ecuador made a formal assessment through its formal processes and found that yes, I am subject to persecution by the United States.
Julian Assange
Every time we witness an act that we feel to be unjust and do not act, we become a party to injustice.
Julian Assange
WikiLeaks is a source protection organization. We are famous for never having exposed one of our sources over 10 years. That's why sources trust us and they come to us.
Julian Assange
What is the possible benefit? Can this material save lives? Can it improve the quality of life in Iraq? Can it tend to shape our perceptions of how war should and should not be conducted? Can it shape our perceptions of who should be conducting war and in what manner? And the answer to that is a clear yes.
Julian Assange
Stopping leaks is a new form of censorship.
Julian Assange
That was a brave and principled thing for Ecuador to do [give me asylum application]. Now we have the U.S. election [campaign], the Ecuadorian election is in February next year, and you have the White House feeling the political heat as a result of the true information that we have been publishing.
Julian Assange
You can't do anything sensible until you know what the situation is that you're in.
Julian Assange
Wikileaks has - we specialize in bringing the First Amendment to the world, and we were always very surprised one of our biggest battles would be trying to bring it to the United States under an Obama administration.
Julian Assange
The US presidency will continue to represent the major power groups of the United States - big business and the military - regardless of who the talking head is.
Julian Assange
Every time you go to a party and take a picture and post that picture to Facebook, you're being a rat. You're being a narc.
Julian Assange
My motivation for 20 years, for 10 years with WikiLeaks, has been to publish true information that is otherwise unsayable. So we're not in competition, if you like.
Julian Assange
I'm not a big fan of regulation: anyone who likes freedom of the press can't be.
Julian Assange
There is unity in the oppression. There must be absolute unity and determination, in the response.
Julian Assange
We released 400,000 classified documents, the most extraordinary history of a war to ever have been released in our civilization. Those documents cover 109,000 deaths. That is serious matter.
Julian Assange
As we've gotten more successful, there's a gap between the speed of our publishing pipeline and the speed of our receiving submissions pipeline. Our pipeline of leaks has been increasing exponentially as our profile rises, and our ability to publish is increasing linearly.
Julian Assange
If we can only live once, let it be a daring adventure.
Julian Assange
I may be a chauvinist pig of some sort, but I'm no rapist.
Julian Assange
Transparency in government leads to reduced corruption.
Julian Assange
I just find it absolutely amazing that the narrative about this situation is not put out publically in the press, because it doesn't suit the Western establishment narrative - that yes, the West has political prisoners, it's a reality, it's not just me, there's a bunch of other people as well.
