Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence and thereby eventually lose all ability to defend ourselves and those we love.

More quotes by Julian Assange
We have some material on spying by a major government on the tech industry. Industrial espionage.
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
Where they couldn't pick holes in our arguments they would drive horses and carriages through my character.
Julian Assange
Even the U.S. government agrees that some Saudi figures have been supporting ISIL, or ISIS.
Julian Assange

Julian Assange
WikiLeaks is designed to make capitalism more free and ethical.
Julian Assange
We don't have sources who are dissidents on other sources. Should they come forward, that would be a tricky situation for us, but we're presumably acting in such a way that people feel morally compelled to continue our mission, not to screw it up.
Julian Assange
If instituted, the TPP's IP regime would trample over individual rights and free expression, as well as ride roughshod over the intellectual and creative commons. If you read, write, publish, think, listen, dance, sing or invent if you farm or consume food if you're ill now or might one day be ill, the TPP has you in its crosshairs.
Julian Assange
That's a problem. I mean, like any sort of growing startup organization, we are sort of overwhelmed by our growth, and that means we're getting enormous quantity of whistleblower disclosures of a very high caliber but don't have enough people to actually process and vet this information.
Julian Assange
Over the last fifteen years, every single person the U.S. has tried to extradite from Sweden has been extradited, and they refuse to provide a guarantee [that won't happen].
Julian Assange
One of the hopeful things that I've discovered is that nearly every war that has started in the past 50 years has been a result of media lies. The media could've stopped it if they had searched deep enough if they hadn't reprinted government propaganda they could've stopped it.
Julian Assange
If we can only live once, then let it be a daring adventure that draws on all our powers. Let our grandchildren delight to find the start of our stories in their ears but the endings all around in their wandering eyes.
Julian Assange
To keep a person ignorant is to place them in a cage.
Julian Assange
Here then is the truth about the Truth the Truth is not bridge, sturdy to every step, a marvel of bound planks and supports from the known into the unknown, but a surging sea of smashed wood, flotsam and drowning sailors.
Julian Assange
Everyone should understand that when they add their friends to Facebook, they are doing free work for United States intelligence agencies in building this database for them.
Julian Assange
Cryptography is the essential building block of independence for organisations on the internet, just like armies are the essential building blocks of states, because otherwise one state just takes over another.
Julian Assange
Stopping leaks is a new form of censorship.
Julian Assange
Every law, every constitution, every regulative decision is based upon what people are discussing in their community. It's based upon our sum knowledge of history and the present.
Julian Assange
Has WikiLeaks been forced to do one thing rather than another in response to resource constraints? Yes. Constantly.
Julian Assange
Libya, more than anyone else's war, was Hillary Clinton's war. Barak Obama initially opposed it. Who was the person championing it? Hillary Clinton. That's documented throughout her emails.
