They captured public's attention
with the power of their words.
- Wording is sloppy here
Welcome to watchmojo.com, and today we're counting down
our pics from the top 10 most powerful speakers in history
- Little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands
with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.
I have a dream today!
For the list we'll be ranking
the most influential historical personalities
who used their oratory talents
for major social change during their lives,
for better or worse
(German)
It isn't always wild gesticulations and booming voices
that grab the crowd's attention.
Case in point, Mahatma Gandhi
a leader for Indian independence
who is known for his soft spoken demeanour
and policies of non-confrontational civil disobedience, or ahimsa
- To gain independence, we must prove worthy of it
One of Gandhi's most famous speeches, 'Quit India'
saw the leader call upon Indians
to utilize passive resistance against Britsh occupation of the country
and decline to participate in World War II.
This practice involved boycotts on British products
including government schooling,
while Gandhi himself went on fasts and hunger strikes,
which often left him severely weakened
- That's right, I have so much tolerance for the other scoundrels of the world.
Nevertheless, Gandhi caused significant social change
by backin up his compelling speeches with action
making him an enduring figure in historical public speaking
- All that has happened is that I've grown a little sinner
Ancient Rome.
A legendary empire held itself as the pinnacle of government and culture
and, in turn, influenced the Western civilisation.
The text from this era that survived
give an idea of the compelling arguments
used by preeminent figures of the day.

- We are all of us imperfect in our way

meaning he learned from yet another important culture,
which had great speakers
like the first citizen of Athens himself, Pericles.
It was that grasp on language that allowed Cicero to translate
much of Greece's rhetoric into Latin
- It always comes to this
Cicero was also involved in government and law
where he utilised rhetoric
to convince all who listened of his arguments,
including the generations of politicians lawyers and public figures,
who study his work today.
- The works of Cicero, powerfully relevant 2077 years later
- The history and the destiny of our countries
have been and always will be
