More quotes by 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
It is getting to the point where the mark of international distinction and service to humanity is no longer the Nobel Peace Price, but an espionage indictment from the US Department of Justice.
Julian Assange
The Iraq War was the biggest issue for people of my generation in the West. It was also the clearest case, in my living memory, of media manipulation and the creation of a war through ignorance.
Julian Assange
We have some material on spying by a major government on the tech industry. Industrial espionage.
Julian Assange
This movement is not about the destruction of law, but the construction of law.
Julian Assange
Facebook in particular is the most appalling spying machine that has ever been invented.
Julian Assange
Stopping leaks is a new form of censorship.
Julian Assange
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.
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
To be alive as a human being is to know, in the same way as it is to have a heart that beats.
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
A lot of people who work for WikiLeaks have the same instinct as me: If you are pushed you push back.
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
Why is it that govt employees makes the best spouses? Because afterthey come back from work, they are not tired and they already readthe newspapers.
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
The only way to keep a secret is to never have one.
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
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
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
