Famous quotes containing the word speeches:

    “The greatest and truest models for all orators ... is 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 (1856–1924)

    “[T]he late Samuel McChord Crothers, genial wit and essayist, ... after listening to the speeches at a certain Harvard Commencement remarked that he gathered that the world had been in great danger, but that all would now be well.”
    —For the State of Massachusetts, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “Few speeches which have produced an electrical effect on an audience can bear the colourless photography of a printed record.”
    —Archibald Philip Primrose, 5th Earl Rosebery (1847–1929)
