Julian Assange
You can't do anything sensible until you know what the situation is that you're in.
Julian Assange

Julian Assange

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
This movement is not about the destruction of law, but the construction of law.
Julian Assange
