More quotes by Julian Assange

Julian Assange
Censorship is always cause for celebration. It is always an opportunity because it reveals fear of reform. It means that the power position is so weak that you have got to care what people think.
Julian Assange
Every War in the past 50 Years is a Result of Media Lies
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.

Julian Assange
The greater the power, the more need there is for transparency, because if the power is abused, the result can be so enormous. On the other hand, those people who do not have power, we mustn't reduce their power even more by making them yet more transparent.
Julian Assange
A lot of people who work for WikiLeaks have the same instinct as me: If you are pushed you push back.
Julian Assange
When it comes to the point where you occasionally look forward to being in prison on the basis that you might be able to spend a day reading a book, the realisation dawns that perhaps the situation has become a little more stressful than you would like.
Julian Assange
This movement is not about the destruction of law, but the construction of law.
Julian Assange
There is unity in the oppression. There must be absolute unity and determination, in the response.
Julian Assange
Dont shoot the messenger for revealing uncomfortable truths.
Julian Assange
Power is a thing of perception. They don't need to be able to kill you. They just need you to think they are able to kill you
Julian Assange
Big Brother is home. He is installed in the item you just dragged home from the Apple store.
Julian Assange
You can't do anything sensible until you know what the situation is that you're in.
Julian Assange
We have a way of dealing with information that has sort of personal - personally identifying information in it. But there are legitimate secrets - you know, your records with your doctor that's a legitimate secret. But we deal with whistleblowers that are coming forward that are really sort of well motivated.
Julian Assange
