The price of freedom of religion, or of speech, or of the press, is that we must put up with a good deal of rubbish.

Robert H. Jackson

That is obviously a free-speech matter for that student and we're not going to police that nor discipline the person for that.

Chris Shoemaker

They have a heckler's veto over speech and content.

Adam Thierer

'The market is staying alert for Muto's speech. There is no consensus on when the bank will start raising rates, and people are wondering whether he will say anything concrete about the timing.

Akitsugu Bandou

My wife has a slight impediment in her speech. Every now and then she stops to breathe.

Jimmy Durante

Speech is the image of actions.

Solon

I know his intent of the speech is that we all work together. And I know we will.

Kathleen Walsh

[Asked in an interview with U.S. network ABC's] Nightline ... One cannot rule it out. The prime minister has not said anything in his speech in this regard.

Ayub Khan

I'm told by some people close to him that this will not be a Kerry-bashing speech. But he's not going to simply rally around Bush. Indeed it's going to be the story of an immigrant coming to this country and finding a country that's embraced him and a party that's embraced him.

David R. Gergen

It would be a tragedy for the First Amendment and for this country if valuable speech about sex were unavailable to adults and minors throughout this country and that would be the effect if this law goes into effect.

Chris Hansen

Speech is conveniently located midway between thought and action, where it often substitutes for both.

John Andrew Holmes

One has to be concerned with not impeding on two constitutional rights: the right to petition the government, and the other, of course, is free speech. If you make it too difficult, too onerous, for people to express their views, you've gone too far.

Peter Scheer

Speak properly, and in as few words as you can, but always plainly; for the end of speech is not ostentation, but to be understood.

William Penn

To write is to make oneself the echo of what cannot cease speaking -- and since it cannot, in order to become its echo I have, in a way, to silence it. I bring to this incessant speech the decisiveness, the authority of my own silence.

Maurice Blanchot

I think it's very PC and very cowardly. They're just not willing to deal with it. It's just completely condemning his freedom of speech.

James O'brien

When he killed a calf he would do it in a high style, and make a speech. (About Shakespeare).

John Aubrey

Fear of serious injury alone cannot justify oppression of free speech and assembly. Men feared witches and burnt women. It is the function of speech to free men from the bondage of irrational fears.

Louis D. Brandeis

The speech becomes ineffective if it's banned from taking place during the event. Hence, it takes away their free speech.

Patrick Lynn

There's a big need for speech-language personnel to meet the needs of (students).

Betty Anderson

People have the right of free speech and that includes being able to walk up and ask for money.

Richard Doran

The first amendment [guaranteeing free speech] is alive and well here in Herndon.

Charlie Waddell

We feel that free speech and artistic expression are sacred. But the Oscars should think twice about what it means to award such a movie a prize.

Yossi Zur

You can't trust politicians. It doesn't matter who makes a political speech. It's all lies... and it applies to any rock star who wants to make a political speech as well.

Bob Geldof

No one should interpret the remarks as being a prelude for the Federal Reserve raising the Fed funds rate at the December or February meeting. That's not going to happen. If that was going to happen, the chairman wouldn't have made a speech to puncture the exuberance.

Wayne Angell

That is when Brian took it upon himself to give the team a little talk, a little speech. He told the players that he was not going to lose this game and they were not, either.

Wardie Sain

The greatest lesson those kids learned today was the importance of free speech.

Morgan Spurlock

Much talking is the cause of danger. Silence is the means of avoiding misfortune. The talkative parrot is shut up in a cage. Other birds, without speech, fly freely about.

Saskya Pandita

Coach [Tim Whitehead] really gave us an emotional speech in the locker room before the game. It meant a lot to the seniors and the rest of the team, and we came out with a lot of fire.

Derek Damon

This isn't a free speech issue. You can't just go on and say anything about anybody ? and keep your job.

Carol Thorp

In a good play every speech should be as fully flavored as a nut or apple.

J.m. Synge

What this country needs is more free speech worth listening to.

Hansell B. Duckett

The reality is that by eliminating GEAR UP in his budget, the President directly contradicts many of his objectives laid out in his State of the Union speech. The irony is that the GEAR UP program is one of the best vehicles for accomplishing what he claims to want to do.

Hector Garza

I am absolutely opposed to political correctness. You cannot confront hate speech until you've experienced it. You need to hear every side of the issue instead of just one.

Jane Elliott

For private employers, there is normally no special First Amendment right to get out of work to engage in a protest. A company might decide that it's good for morale to accommodate the exercise of freedom of speech on an issue that is very important to people, but that's an employment judgment not law.

Rodney A. Smolla

If nobody spoke unless he had something to say, the human race would very soon lose the use of speech.

W. Somerset Maugham

Autistic children have a hard time making friends. In Molly's case, her lack of speech doesn't help. We would be encouraging people to talk to her and pet her dog.

Susan Williamson

If Thomas Jefferson had heard us, he probably would have said, 'We shouldn't have free speech.'

Robin Quivers

[Asked about the speech April 11, Bolton said it was] fully cleared within the appropriate bureaucracy ... Thanks a lot for that speech, John. It'll help us a lot out here.

Thomas Hubbard

Back when I gave that speech in March, some of my hedge fund friends thought it would be a big issue by the third quarter. But here we are, it's July, and it just hasn't seemed to register.

David Hale

If they keep arresting us without charging us, then they are doing nothing other than restricting our freedom of speech. This needs to be challenged, and if we're arrested again, we'll have a stronger case.

Daniel Ellsberg

As I was leaving this morning, I said to myself 'the last thing you must do is forget your speech.' And sure enough, as I left the house this morning, the last thing I did was to forget my speech.

Rowan Atkinson

What great delight it is to see the ones we love and then to have speech with them.

Vincent Mcnabb

The Web site doesn't have any connection to Senator Allen. But free speech allows them to print up what they want.

Jason Miller

We played pretty poorly in the first half. But after a halftime speech, we came out ready to play our game in the second.

Kelly Winning

The freedom of speech is worthless without the freedom of offensive speech. Goebbels and Himmler were for freedom of speech that was inoffensive to the state.

Avram Noam Chomsky

It's absurd to try to police demeaning speech. That's not what a free society does.

Greg Lukianoff

A speech is poetry: cadence, rhythm, imagery, sweep! A speech reminds us that words, like children, have the power to make dance the dullest beanbag of a heart.

Peggy Noonan

By adopting a prayer policy that allows only nondenominational prayer, the City Council has effectively deprived Turner of his freedom of speech under the First Amendment.

John W. Whitehead

We were plagued by inherent time delays in the process, and we were paying significant amounts of money for a less than optimum result. Our legacy system did not offer the ability to implement speech recognition on that platform.

Don Reed

People who are looking for grand oratory in a speech like this should keep the remote handy.

Michael Waldman

This was a speech with political ramifications throughout, but it was also a day of good cheer. This was like a one-day reprieve, and believe me, tomorrow, once again, the tomahawks will come out, they will be at war once more.

Barry Rascovar

This is not a free speech issue.

Tustin Amole

We are quite relieved. It has been a test of free speech, and we hope the government will now get off the backs of our [Muslim] community.

Nihad Awad

This is a scare tactic. We haven't had raids for a very long, long time. It's a sad thing if we have raids by the government to stop people from expressing their freedom of speech.

Angela Mejia

In the tabloid age, people think that they can say what they want. This is not (covered) by free speech. The truth is you can't just say what you want.

Carol Thorp

OPERA, n. A play representing life in another world, whose inhabitants have no speech but song, no motions but gestures and no postures but attitudes. All acting is simulation, and the word _simulation_ is from _simia_, an ape; but in opera the actor takes for his model _Simia audibilis_ (or _Pithecanthropos stentor_) -- the ape that howls. The actor apes a man -- at least in shape; .

Ambrose Bierce

[Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg had made a similar point in an April speech.] We live in an age in which the fundamental principles to which we subscribe -- liberty, equality and justice for all -- are encountering extraordinary challenges, ... But it is also an age in which we can join hands with others who hold to those principles and face similar challenges.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Well-timed silence hath more eloquence than speech.

Martin Fraquhar Tupper

Music is well said to be the speech of angels.

Thomas Carlyle

I think a lot of Americans sometimes confuse freedom of speech with the idea that we have a right to say anything without any consequences whatsoever.

Daniel Drezner

You don't keep that speech in your back pocket.

Rudy Meredith

Instead of a State of the Union address, the president kicked off his re-election campaign. His speech was long on rhetoric and short on resources.

Rahm Emanuel

[Several events have been planned on the sidelines of the exhibition; in a 3-day conference held from 29 September-1October, 250 people participated, among whom 40 presented essays and 5 to 6 were Iranians.] The seminar, I hope, reveals some results of studies on Achaemenid religions, administration, and military affairs, ... though there is not any speech on the languages of the era.

John Curtis

Evidence already existed that President Bush lied about our reasons for invading Iraq when he delivered his January, 2003, State of the Union speech. The Downing Street memo confirmed that intelligence was 'fixed' to support the war.

Rae Vogeler

Heather had by far the best speech. Her marks in interview were the highest.

Virginia White

I really have never heard an acceptance speech where 20 years of a guy's life in the U.S. Senate is kissed off in three sentences.

Jeff Greenfield

Never forget posterity when devising a policy. Never think of posterity when making a speech.

Robert G. Menzies

It usually takes more than three weeks to prepare a good impromptu speech.

Mark Twain

It's easier to find a new audience than to write a new speech.

Dan Kennedy

[Most political speech:] I know Bruce [Paltrow] would want me to pay tribute to New Orleans, his favorite city, and all the Gulf Coast and our kids in Iraq. Let's get the heck out of there. ... Huff.

Blythe Danner

The focus ... was Tang's speech, which was pretty much in line with what the market had expected so investors weren't prompted to either buy or sell.

Philip Chan

When the public's right to know is threatened, and when the rights of free speech and free press are at risk, all of the other liberties we hold dear are endangered.

Christopher Dodd

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

I didn't want any senators to vote based on his assertion that I'd approved his speech.

Thomas Hubbard

I agree with him. We are pretty average. But there's nothing wrong with that. When you look up and down the roster, we are pretty average. … Hey, we are what we are. We can't apologize for who we are. It's just the way it is. If he wants to make that comment, he can go right ahead. He has freedom of speech.

Jonathan Goodwin

What we would like them to do is send them a message that this kind of hate speech which is designed to intimidate Catholics from engaging in public discussions can't be tolerated.

Bill Donohue

His speech was very high-minded.

Dan Gelber

That fits the overall strategy in a speech like this. You don't wander into an area where you're going to have a hard time explaining the situation. You use rhetoric and topics that can portray you in a positive light.

John Straayer

Certainly there are disputes about how ordinances attempting to regulate signs apply to political speech. Many of those ordinances don't comply with the First Amendment.

Mark Silverstein

To criticize the Middle East would not have made any sense because the speech was about being an academic in the United States, not the Middle East.

Laurie Brand

There was no 'Win one of the Gipper,' speech and I don't believe in saying the score is 0-0 and go out and try to win the second half. The score is what it is. We went out, played hard and played a lot better in the second half.

Michael Perkins

It was most of all, safe. There's nothing really that the opposition can get a handle on and hammer the government with in that throne speech.

Craig Oliver

It was clearly something very meaningful to him. It was genuine, nothing theatrical. I wouldn't have necessarily identified it as a campaign speech.

Jane Halliburton

EXCOMMUNICATION, n. This 'excommunication' is a word In speech ecclesiastical oft heard, And means the damning, with bell, book and candle, Some sinner whose opinions are a scandal -- A rite permitting Satan to enslave him Forever, and forbidding Christ to save him. Gat Huckle.

Ambrose Bierce

It felt like a legacy speech.

Billy Hayes

We plan to keep contacting folks in the SRI industry until we find someone who is willing to take a stand against violent hate speech.

Tom Borelli

I'm already writing my Oscar speech.

Mike Diamond

Our goal was to better understand what happened, and why the campus demonstration appeared on the domestic surveillance database. We are very pleased that the Pentagon has removed that event from the list. Political dissent is protected speech. I believe that these kinds of lists really smack of McCarthyism and it is reminiscent of 1954.

Ucsc Chancellor Denice Denton

I'll make sure you get a copy of my speech tomorrow.

Antonio Fazio

Just like in Scent of a Woman , you know, when the guy is up there and Al Pacino gives the speech to the headmaster -- give him a chance.

Nick Saban

The addition of Todd marks the maturing of our efforts to establish industry-leading partnerships that benefit our customers. Our channel partnerships are an essential part of our growth strategy, and Todd has the breadth of experience in the software, hardware, and telecommunications industries to introduce new programs that will accelerate the adoption of our sophisticated speech solutions.

Stuart Patterson

Expect to see a lot more broadcast news (audio and video, advanced speech to text recognition, full transcripts) from us this year.

Jim Pitkow

Look wise, say nothing, and grunt. Speech was given to conceal thought.

Sir William Osler

We distill content for Fortune 500 executives every day. We know how to take a twenty-minute speech and edit it down to the three or four minutes that apply directly to a specific constituency. We can leverage any existing or future communication initiative, adding to the value of those efforts.

Joe Mullen

There's a lot of outrage within our organization. We wanted to counter [The Remnant's fliers] with our own free speech.

Richael Faithful

I'm a very strong advocate of freedoms, but this is a deliberate provocation hiding behind the issue of free speech.

Muqtedar Khan

At the celebration at the Shiite shrine, a cleric gave a scathing speech in the mosque's courtyard. He lashed out at the first Muslim caliphs, the founding fathers of Islam in Sunni eyes, and usurpers of power in Shiite eyes. Though he couched his attacks in the context and vocabulary of early Islamic history, it was clear that he had much more contemporary targets in his metaphorical crosshairs.

Correspondent Charles Levinson

Greenspan's speech positioned the Fed to be able to go either way on raising interest rates at its next meeting. On the one hand it had very strong New-era tones about the strength of productivity growth. On the other hand, he repeated his concerns about the shortage of available labor.

Melanie Hardy

Any democracy worth its salt should be strong enough to endure the most controversial speech.

Peter Kent

Every American has the right to a peaceful protest and everyone has the right to express their views without breaking the law. Freedom of speech is obviously supported by the president and this White House. As far as our national security programs, those are built and funded to preserve and protect those freedoms.

Trent Duffy

I'm a huge believer in free speech. I'm a street performer. But you can't impede somebody else's speech.

Brendan Foley

Has an extensive bill of rights, individual protections for all individuals. It has freedom of speech rights, freedom of religion rights.

Sean Hannity

A president does not stop in a freshman congressional district to give a speech and in turn have a fund-raiser for a freshman unless he's in trouble. That's Politics 101.

Jonathan Smith

To a certain extent, Bush's speech about increased spending in the U.S. Gulf Coast is helping the market. I am not too terribly surprised that consumer confidence is low because the number is colored by Katrina. The upgrades are certainly helping Intel and Exxon, and that's boosting the Dow.

Paul Nolte

As I get into my speech, they start to see those things, and it starts to close the gap, and they see -- he really is no different than I am.

Chris Hollyfield

Bay, let's go ahead and bring you in. There was a promise from the White House that we were going to hear unprecedented details in this speech. I don't know that we heard that.

Daryn Kagan

I thought all of this speech was too sympathetic, ... It was too much 'I feel your pain.'

Michael Goodwin

Mumford more than any movie marked the turning point ... That was the first time where I really changed my mannerisms my speech mannerisms, the way I talked, the way I carried myself.

Jason Lee

Sounds like you giving this speech.

Daryn Kagan

The Boston Red Sox are not owned by the city of Boston. No governmental entity is involved. Private businesses, including sports teams, can impose restrictions on freedom of speech and not suffer any legal consequences.

Rodney A. Smolla

It's simply a very bad idea for privacy and for free speech for the government to design any technology, much less the Internet, to be surveillance-friendly.

Lee Tien

My view and the ACLU view on suppression of political speech in school is that the public schools have a pointed responsibility to prepare students to think critically and participate in our democracy.

Michael Steinberg

Speech is the gift of all, but the thought of few.

Cato the Elder

What the government can regulate is the time, place and manner. The government has ways they can regulate and not prohibit speech.

John Blakeman

The Pub Council was probably the most exciting. That group has probably had more influence on freedom of speech and freedom of press than any other group at the university.

Ryck Luthi

This bill will be challenged as unconstitutional. (The original statute) is drafted for pornography. (Unlike pornography,) violence is a protected form of speech.

Scott Sabey

They are making a mockery of free-speech rights and rights of association. This is not supposed to happen in this country.

Steve Zieff

Cut [the speech] in half.

Bob Sheppard

The respect of fundamental rights, constitutional rights, freedom of speech and assembly, freedom of movement.

Sam Rainsy

They're likely to win, because the courts are increasingly interpreting advertising speech as something that's covered by the First Amendment.

Marion Nestle

We're not going against Islam whatsoever. This is about free speech and the free marketplace of ideas.

Brock Hill

That means we don't have freedom of speech anymore.

Gary Larsen

Speech technology has moved on a lot in the last 20 years but the problem arises at the recognition level. Human beings have different speeds of delivery, they have different accents.

Graham Davies

[His interest in hazardous overseas assignments can be traced back to a childhood fascination.] I was in fifth grade during the Gulf War in 1991, ... I remember drawing a map of the Middle East and watching CNN nightly with my dad. One day, I even asked my teacher if I could skip gym class to hear a speech by General Norman Schwarzkopf.

Michael Hastings

Network neutrality is the First Amendment of the Internet. Net neutrality is the reason why the Internet has driven economic innovation, democratic participation, and free speech online - and the public demands Congress not dismantle it.

Timothy Karr

I grew up to have my father's looks - my fathers speech patterns - my father's posture - my father's walk - my father's opinions and my mother's contempt for my father.

Jules Feiffer

He was giving a speech as if the nation were disheartened and worried and had lost its spirit, but that's not what people were thinking. They were thinking, why did the government screw up?

Mickey Edwards

It was a very balanced statement and it struck, we thought, the right note between freedom of speech and responsible freedom of speech and it also called for greater understanding of Islam and Muslims and greater dialogue between Canadians and Canadian Muslims, so the initiative draws on that.

Riad Saloojee

The freedom of speech doesn't give you the right to do whatever you want. It doesn't give you the freedom to commit a crime.

Katie Walker

I think the concerns about free speech in areas where the president is speaking long pre-date Bush. They were an issue in the Clinton administration, the first Bush administration and began as an issue during Reagan. I do think the ACLU has legitimate concerns about the breadth of the new language and how it could be applied.

David Kopel

I am torn between the right of freedom of speech and how some groups have used it as a cover to preach hate of other groups and races.

Melvin Burruss

Great wisdom is generous; petty wisdom is contentious. Great speech is impassioned, small speech cantankerous.

Chuang tzu

This kind of advertising has great appeal to young people, but the line where the states and the government can restrict that speech is very squishy.

George Hacker

Tears at times have all the weight of speech.

Ovid

You can expect there will be more mobile search products coming out. Speech as a mode for doing searches is getting more reliable.

Dan Miller

The citizen's right to practice free speech on their own property is a right that is cherished and before we make any decisions about this resolution, we must review all of this issues that accompany it.

Art Spada

We have a great girls and guys track program and cross country program, too. We want to be known as a school that's well rounded. You can do a lot things there besides play football. Basketball happens to be one of them, but we've got a nationally renowned speech and debate team, too.

Rhonda Brown

Not everyone was able to see the governor's speech on television. In addition to making a speech or sending out a news release, we also try to communicate in other ways.

Carla Blanton

The timing doesn't look absolutely great. It's not a speech you give if you're trying to convince people not to acquire nuclear weapons.

Francois Heisbourg

There may have been people who wanted to see it (at Miller's theater), but he may have been trying to avoid offending another group by showing it. Under freedom of speech, private individuals have the right not to carry messages. If he found it objectionable, it's his freedom of speech right to decline to carry it.

John Fee

I helped edit his speech (to the nurses' association). I thought it was well done, ... He's a private citizen who wants to perform a public service. He has no desire to run.

Art Torres

I thought [Powell] did a great job. It was a constructive speech. The key question on everyone's mind is, 'What now?' We'll have to see how the delegates react.

David Briggs

That we continue to pressure both parties, but certainly Chairman Arafat, to go in implementing everything he has said in his speech.

Guy Verhofstadt

The debate is now whether we should try to figure out what the framers meant, or interpret (the Bill of Rights) through constantly evolving attitudes. The First Amendment says that Congress shall make no law abridging freedom of speech. But if that is taken literally, then you could not bring cases for things like defamation or espionage.

Douglas Linder

If it is difficult to define commercial speech, doesn't that chill speech?

Justice Anthony Kennedy

Anyone wishing to communicate with Americans should do so by e-mail, which has been specially invented for the purpose, involving neither physical proximity nor speech.

Auberon Waugh

If people show up, they will be able to hear the speech, regardless.

Joe Richard

The speakers Brianna used for her study have no reason to distinguish between 'pin' and 'pen,' either from a perception or production standpoint, since others in their speech community don't. It's just a matter of what the speakers have been exposed to and the distinctions they're used to making.

Nancy Niedzielski

The speech just showed that Lula is weak and he doesn't know how to punish his friends.

Joao Medeiros

The tone of that speech is much more consistent with the person who I worked with for eight years.

Gregory Garre

Students have been brainwashed with a culture of political correctness and tolerance. We warn them, and they call it hate speech. If you don't agree with everything that they believe, they call you intolerant.

Tom Griner

The concept is fine. We are concerned about it being a neutral statute. If you're going to have a restriction on speech, it has to be content neutral. It has to be reasonable. It can't be too broad. The main concern is that it specifically only protects or creates a zone around funerals involving the military.

Ben Stone

Lloyd was asked to speak as a healthcare consultant to physicians, hospital administrators, agents and brokers at very high profile events. Without exception, participants mentioned Lloyd's speech as the high point of the event. It was evident he had researched the organization and the audience.

Mary Taylor

His speech was hawkish in the sense that there would be more interest rate increases. But again, there's something for everybody in his speech, including dollar bears.

Shaun Osborne

If you are going to take all the trouble to prepare and deliver a speech, make it worthwhile, ... Working the Room.

Nick Morgan

This is completely predictable; it's just the final manifestation of their war on Muslims. Where are all the values they say they stand for: freedom of speech, freedom of expression, the right of innocence until proven guilty?

Anjem Choudary

I indeed had only one scene, one speech, one little speech, but it was with Robin Williams.

Charles Keating

Most Americans have never heard King's entire speech. They may have heard clips of it, and maybe the same one over and over. But now there is the opportunity for Tyler to gather together and hear these truly inspiring words as a community.

Rev Jerome Milton

[But doctors don't know whether he'll ever be able to walk on his own or improve his speech.] Right now he's at 50 to 60 percent, ... I don't think he'll ever make 100 percent. But he's going to grow and develop.

Frank Mcdonald

[While digital speech is sounding better, it still has a way to go, industry experts acknowledge.] Speech technology is not perfect, not by a long shot, ... The fact is, speech recognizers are not as good as humans, and they'll never be.

Janet Baker

A high school teacher has no speech rights, yet must use words to deliver curriculum.

Linda Manning

This speech will be a turning point. It will come as a real response direct from the source, clearing up the speculation.

Haj Ali

My legs, especially, I shake sometimes. Over the last year my speech is slowing down.

Walter Bentson

Some people think we should put ourselves in the documentary, make it about making the documentary. To me, that's like a student doing a project about how to do a project, or somebody giving a speech on how to give a speech. If you just know that girls made this movie, that's enough.

Mimi Rich

The leader's blueprint speech is a statement of what Labor will seek to achieve in government. That was obviously thought through in the leader's office.

Martin Ferguson

The argument that this law is somehow infringing on the free speech rights of legitimate e-mail marketers is absurd. This is a reasonable effort to protect minors from materials society has always deemed harmful to kids. The senders are not barred from sending their e-mails to adults -- just those addresses registered as accessible to children.

Matthew Prince

Free speech carries with it some freedom to listen.

Bob Marley

We expect a balanced speech that reaffirms that a March hike is likely, but that subsequent moves are data-dependent.

Drew Matus

Most people talk and then wait for the audience to ask questions -- I disagree. I think that when you give a speech, you should be eager to be interrupted.

Lilyan Wilder

No one ever complains about a speech being too short!

Ira Hayes

George Orwell's advice from 1946 is still worth following: `Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print'.

John Lister

I?m not usually very impressed with him as a speechmaker, but I thought his speech had most of the right elements for being a really good presidential speech.

David Barrett

Pornographic material seems to hold a fascination for the human species. It's a human trait. It doesn't matter if you live in a big city or a rural area - the interest in this kind of speech is the same.

Gary Edinger

She has said two or three short sentences. When she sees here children, she says 'I love you.' At first she was only repeating things that the speech therapist said to her, or [the speech therapist] would start a song and [King] would start to sing it. Now she is coming up with what she wants to say, which is new. Every day, there is a little progress.

Maggie Mermin

How he looks at Laura Bush at the end of the speech tells us a lot about how he thinks he did.

Karen Bradley

We are living in this blank white, and for us it's definitely not paradise. If we, as a society, want to treasure freedom of speech, and the way we live, we have to be careful what we endorse.

Ron Kehrmann

The right to free speech is guaranteed by the Constitution. Of course, the state has the right to regulate but an enforcement of an absolute no-permit, no-rally prohibition is unconstitutional.

Franklin Drilon

This is criminalizing freedom of speech, opinion, thought and belief.

Massoud Shadjareh

Laughter is, after speech, the chief thing that holds society together.

Max Eastman

For Republicans, it's politically stupid. It's not 527 reform. It's something that restricts speech.

David Keating

I can understand where people are coming from, but at the same time, this is America and we have freedom of speech. I have the choice if I want to go see something like this or not.

Jennifer Davis

The color of the mountains is Buddha's body; the sound of running water is his great speech.

Dogen

It was a pretty safe speech and a pretty safe agenda, nothing to terribly upset or terribly excite anyone on either side. It was pretty much of a speech of no change here.

Todd Shaw

Today our efforts have three fundamental objectives: free elections, freedom of speech, and free education.

Alexander Milinkevich

It will be very important for him to do (that) big public visible speech right after he gets there to let everybody know there's a new sheriff in town, he's got a nice pistol with a lot of ammunition in it, and don't mess with him.

Kevin Hassett

It's not so bad for politicians and Pulitzer Prize poets and certain intellectuals in this country to sign petitions and speak out against the war in Vietnam, but when Cassius Clay did it he paid a heavy price for Freedom of Speech.

Floyd Patterson

Yeltsin's delivery during his oath and the fact that he made no speech indicated that he was unwell, but his bearing when he walked to the podium suggested that the illness was not very serious.

Andrei Kortunov

I just told him the speech he makes before every big game he should make that before every small team, also, and we'll be OK.

Mark Tyndale

Under all speech that is good for anything there lies a silence that is better. Silence is deep as Eternity; speech is shallow as Time.

Thomas Carlyle

The average Southerner has the speech patterns of someone slipping in and out of consciousness. I can change my shoes and socks faster than most people in Mississippi can speak a sentence.

Bill Bryson

But one thing he didn't address, having raised in his speech the suggestion that politics in France had to change, he didn't have anything to suggest how the political system should change.

Robin Oakley

SLANG, n. The grunt of the human hog (_Pignoramus intolerabilis_) with an audible memory. The speech of one who utters with his tongue what he thinks with his ear, and feels the pride of a creator in accomplishing the feat of a parrot. A means (under Providence) of setting up as a wit without a capital of sense.

Ambrose Bierce

This speech gives him a venue to turn things around, and it's important, but events are more important. Bush has been losing the battle for the agenda and the perception battle.

Michael Genovese

This is a blurring of the margins of people who are engaged in non-violent political speech, an attempt to bunch them in with extremists and terrorists.

Imran Waheed

We want to get the English, music, theater and speech students to participate.

Jim Simmonds

Mark Kennedy

We are at war, but we are not. Does it seem like a wartime nation? Bush has not asked for sacrifices, hasn't done the recruiting speech, hasn't asked us to do the recycling or to conserve or a lot of the things you read about in past wars.
