More quotes by Julian Assange
The aim of Wikileaks is to achieve just reform around the world and do it through the mechanism of transparency.
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
WikiLeaks is designed to make capitalism more free and ethical.
Julian Assange
Libya, more than anyone else's war, was Hillary Clinton's war.
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
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
I am an Australian citizen, and I miss my country a great deal.
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
Society develops a type of self-censorship, with the knowledge that surveillance exists - a self-censorship that is even expressed when people communicate with each other privately.
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
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
If you look at most definitions, a god is omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent. In particular, god knows when you are doing something that you shouldn't be doing and whether you are playing according to god's rules.
Julian Assange
True information does good.
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
We have published about 800,000 documents of various kinds that relate to Russia. Most of those are critical and a great many books have come out of our publications about Russia, most of which are critical.
Julian Assange
It is the media that controls the boundaries of what is politically permissible, so better to change the media. Profit motives work against it, but if we can have the audience understand that most other forms of journalism are not credible, then it may be a forced move.
Julian Assange
We always expect tremendous criticism. It is my role to be the lightning rod ... to attract the attacks against the organization for our work, and that is a difficult role. On the other hand, he said, I get undue credit.
Julian Assange
Even the U.S. government agrees that some Saudi figures have been supporting ISIL, or ISIS.
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
If we can only live once, let it be a daring adventure.
