More quotes by Julian Assange
If wars can be started by lies, they can be stopped by truth.
Julian Assange
In the justice system, we say there must be open justice where there is to be justice. The judged while trying must themselves be tried before the public.
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.
Julian Assange
It is the role of good journalism to take on powerful abusers, and when powerful abusers are taken on, there's always a bad reaction. So we see that controversy, and we believe that is a good thing to engage in.
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
And if Bradley Manning really did as he is accused, he is a hero, an example to us all and one of the world's foremost political prisoners.
Julian Assange
In the history of Wikileaks, nobody has claimed that the material being put out is not authentic.
Julian Assange
My personal analysis is that, if you are concerned about U.S. foreign policy and getting into foolish wars, then Hillary Clinton is not your woman. On the other hand, I mean neither is Donald Trump.
Julian Assange
Where they couldn't pick holes in our arguments they would drive horses and carriages through my character.
Julian Assange
WikiLeaks is really a litmus test for those people who walk the talk in the media. How much will they really follow their protestations to be brave publishers, and how much do they really want to lick the boots of power? Well, you can tell by their engagement with us and what they do.
Julian Assange
I actually feel quite sorry for Hillary Clinton as a person because I see someone who is eaten alive by their ambitions, tormented literally to the point where they become sick they faint as a result of [the reaction] to their ambitions.
Julian Assange
Power factions fight back with lies.
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
Don’t damage computer systems you break into (including crashing them) don’t change the information in those systems (except for altering logs to cover your tracks) and share information.
Julian Assange
Cablegate is 3,000 volumes of material. It is the greatest intellectual treasure to have entered into the public record in modern times.
Julian Assange
Those who are repeatedly passive in the face of injustice soon find their character corroded.
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
There is unity in the oppression. There must be absolute unity and determination, in the response.
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
The question is how does Hilary Clinton fit in this broader network? She's a centralising cog. You've got a lot of different gears in operation from the big banks like Goldman Sachs and major elements of Wall Street, and Intelligence and people in the State Department and the Saudis.
