Auberon Herbert
Orators are most vehement when their cause is weak.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Our swords shall play the orators for us.
Christopher Marlowe
The passions are the only orators which always persuade.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
The people only understand what they can feel; the only orators that can affect them are those who move them.
Alphonse de Lamartine
The popular tendency is to listen approvingly to the most extreme statements and claims of politicians and orators who seek popularity by declaring their own country right in everything and other countries wrong in everything.
Elihu Root
What orators lack in depth they make up for in length.
Charles de Montesquieu
