Zitat

'It's a useful album of insights into the shocking decade we've just left behind - The outstanding speeches here certainly "channel thinking," in his words, "moving it into new territory." - The outstanding speeches here weld their audience together with a surge of linguistic energy - but their real claim to greatness is that they did what they aimed to do, at the moment of their performance, stunningly.' The Speechwriter
