If there is no free speech, every single life has lived in vain
Ai Weiwei
Image
Without freedom of speech, there is no modern world, just a barbaric one.
Ai Weiwei
Image
If I had been an Italian I am sure that I should have been whole-heartedly with you from the start to finish in your triumphant struggle against the bestial appetites and passions of Leninism.
Winston Churchill
Image
The essence and foundation of House of Commons debating is formal conversation. The set speech, the harangue addressed to constituents, or to the wider public out of doors, has never succeeded much in our small wisely-built chamber. To do any good you have got to get down to grips with the subject and in human touch with the audience.
Winston Churchill
Image
There are two things that are more difficult than making an after-dinner speech: climbing a wall which is leaning toward you and kissing a girl who is leaning away from you.
Winston Churchill
Image
Free speech carries with it the evil of all foolish, unpleasant venomous things that are said but, on the whole, we would rather lump them than do away with them.
Winston Churchill
Image
The mark of a true politician is that he is never at a loss for words because he is always half-expecting to be asked to make a speech.
Richard M. Nixon
Image
I cannot write in verse, for I am no poet. I cannot arrange the parts of speech with such art as to produce effects of light and shade, for I am no painter. Even by signs and gestures I cannot express my thoughts and feelings, for I am no dancer. But I can do so by means of sounds, for I am a musician.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Image
No glass renders a man's form or likeness so true as his speech.
Ben Jonson
Image
Mr President, I have decided not to speak the entire speech which I have.
Afonso Van-Dunem
Image
When a tongue fails to send forth appropriate shafts, there might be a word to act as healer of these.
Aeschylus
Image
I, schooled in misery, know many purifying rites, and I know where speech is proper and where silence.
Aeschylus
Image
The greatest and truest models for all oratorsis Demosthenes. One who has not studied deeply and constantly all the great speeches of the great Athenian, is not prepared to speak in public. Only as the constant companion of Demosthenes, Burke, Fox, Canning and Webster, can we hope to become orators.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
Revolutionary politics, revolutionary art, and oh, the revolutionary mind, is the dullest thing on earth. When we open a revolutionary review, or read a revolutionary speech, we yawn our heads off. It is true, there is nothing else. Everything is correctly, monotonously, dishearteningly revolutionary. What a stupid word! What a stale fuss!
Wyndham Lewis
Image
I have often regretted my speech, never my silence.
Xenocrates
Image
Particularly the broad masses of the people can be moved only by the power of speech.
Adolf Hitler
Image
Loud speech, profusion of words, and possessing skillfulness in expounding scriptures are merely for the enjoyment of the learned. They do not lead to liberation.
Adi Shankara
Image
Speech is the mark of humanity. It is the normal terminus of thought.
Susanne Katherina Langer
Image
A people's speech is the skin of its culture.
Max Lerner
Image
Countries that censor news and information must recognize that from an economic standpoint, there is no distinction between censoring political speech and commercial speech. If businesses in your nations are denied access to either type of information, it will inevitably impact on growth.
Hillary Clinton
Image
I wasn't a kid growing up thinking, 'One day I'll get an Oscar and make a speech.' That wasn't on my mind.
Adam Sandler
Image
When there is freedom of speech, I've found that the majority of people really have nothing to say.
Yevgeny Yevtushenko
Image
The child takes most of his nature of the mother, besides speech, manners, and inclination.
Herbert Spencer
Image
President Bush delivered a commencement speech at a university in Wisconsin. A very inspirational speech. Apparently Bush told the students, 'You can do anything in life if your parents work hard enough.'
