What is the greatest speech of all time? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 78/100. stevew1805h (937)3 years ago

One of the most famous speeches is the " I have a Dream " by Martin Luther King. The words are rousing, motivational and filled with emotion as are all of the best speeches. The essence of the most persuasive speeches is the inspirational and informative quality that these types of speeches possess. The " I have a Dream " speech is especially moving as it symbolises Freedom of Speech and the dream was essentially an extension of the Freedom of speech philosophy.
What's you favourite and why?
I must admit that Churchill did for me=====>

What General Weygand called the Battle of France is over. I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin. Upon this battle depends the survival of Christian civilization. Upon it depends our own British life, and the long continuity of our institutions and our Empire. The whole fury and might of the enemy must very soon be turned on us. Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this Island or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be free and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands. But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, "This was their finest hour."
