More quotes by 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
The aim of Wikileaks is to achieve just reform around the world and do it through the mechanism of transparency.
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
I am an Australian citizen, and I miss my country a great deal.
Julian Assange
The Obama administration has attempted to prosecute more journalists and journalistic sources under the same Espionage Act she was being investigated under in all previous presidencies combined.
Julian Assange
Facebook in particular is the most appalling spying machine that has ever been invented.
Julian Assange
Even the U.S. government agrees that some Saudi figures have been supporting ISIL, or ISIS.
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
WikiLeaks is designed to make capitalism more free and ethical.
Julian Assange
If you were following the [Barack] Obama campaign back then, closely, you could see it had become very close to banking interests. So I think you can't properly understand Hillary Clinton's foreign policy without understanding Saudi Arabia.
Julian Assange
Which country is suffering from too much freedom of speech? Name it, is there one?
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
The best type of government comes from a government that is scrutinized by the people when they have true information about our governments, major corporations, other power actors in society.
Julian Assange
To keep a person ignorant is to place them in a cage.
Julian Assange
This movement is not about the destruction of law, but the construction of law.
Julian Assange
The rhetoric is pretending, constantly pretending that I have been charged with a crime, and never mentioning that I have been already previously cleared, never mentioning that the woman herself says that the police made it up.
Julian Assange
Every War in the past 50 Years is a Result of Media Lies
Julian Assange
People love WikiLeaks when it is exposing corruption in their opponents. People oppose WikiLeaks when it is exposing corruption or dangerous behavior in themselves.
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
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.
