The wise ones fashioned speech with their thought, sifting it as grain is sifted through a sieve.
Buddha
If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.
George Washington
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
A superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions.
Confucius
The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions.
Confucius
It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things: freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either of them.
Mark Twain
It usually takes me more than three weeks to prepare a good impromptu speech.
Mark Twain
Mind your speech a little lest you should mar your fortunes.
William Shakespeare
We do not need to proselytise either by our speech or by our writing. We can only do so really with our lives. Let our lives be open books for all to study.
Mahatma Gandhi
In making a speech one must study three points: first, the means of producing persuasion; second, the language; third the proper arrangement of the various parts of the speech.
Aristotle
A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous.
Ingrid Bergman
Men use thought only as authority for their injustice, and employ speech only to conceal their thoughts.
Voltaire
I think my first album opened a lot of doors for me to push the freedom of speech to the limit.
Eminem
Watch your manner of speech if you wish to develop a peaceful state of mind. Start each day by affirming peaceful, contented and happy attitudes and your days will tend to be pleasant and successful.
Norman Vincent Peale
Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret.
Ambrose Bierce
Great ambition, the desire of real superiority, of leading and directing, seems to be altogether peculiar to man, and speech is the great instrument of ambition.
Adam Smith
Purity of speech, of the mind, of the senses, and of a compassionate heart are needed by one who desires to rise to the divine platform.
Chanakya
To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker.
Frederick Douglass
People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.
Soren Kierkegaard
How absurd men are! They never use the liberties they have, they demand those they do not have. They have freedom of thought, they demand freedom of speech.
Soren Kierkegaard
