You know what I love? Words. The power of words. The fact that someone with just great oratory or writing skills can influence masses just blows my mind. They can cause rebellions, wars, carnage with their words.

My love for great speakers really began after reading Mark Antony’s speech from Julius Caesar. Yeah, I know it was written by William Shakespeare but see, that’s the beauty of it. Julius Caesar was based on the actual story of the great Roman leader Julius Caesar and his death. There was truly Mark Antony who aroused the masses of Rome to mutiny as an act of avenging Caesar’s death. Shakespeare’s version is just a great example of what the actual speech might’ve been! “Brutus is an honorable man” will forever be one of the greatest sarcastic lines written in history.
