Julian Assange: The world needs to know.
Daniel Berg: Courage is contagious. Right?

Julian Assange: I've heard people say I dangle on the autistic spectrum. Probably why I lean so heavily on those around me.
Julian Assange: I have a son in Melbourne. He turns nineteen next week, I haven't seen him in a year. It takes two things to change the world, and you'd be surprised how many people have good ideas. But commitment, true commitment, that's the hard one. It requires sacrifice.

It's all about you. And a little bit about me too.
Julian Assange: Man is least himself when he talks with his own person. But if you give him a mask, he will tell you the truth. Two people, and a secret: the beginning of all conspiracies. More people, and, more secrets. But if we could find one moral man, one whistle-blower. Someone willing to expose those secrets, that man can topple the most powerful and most repressive of regimes.
Sarah Shaw: Do you think the President of Turkmenistan will be more upset that I called him a practised liar or that I called him vain?
James Boswell: I don't think he's worried about the opinions of a mid-level foreign attaché.
Sarah Shaw: That's why I signed Hillary's name to it.
Sarah Shaw: If you don't want ugly pictures, you should stay out of ugly wars.
Sarah Shaw: You don't want ugly pictures, you should stay out of ugly wars.
Nick Davies: The tyrants of the world should beware. Knowing that now, we have the power to demand the information that one day soon will wash them all away.
Julian Assange: As Oscar Wilde said, "Man is least himself when he talks with his own person. Give a man a mask, and he will tell you the truth. "
