Ask HN: What are your favorite speeches?
I'm building a site that collects all the world's best speeches. I believe that the repositories that exist for speeches are often cluttered with ads and/or unappealing layouts. Speeches are works of art and they deserve to be displayed in pleasing manner. My prototype is here: http://beautifulspee.ch/
- MalcolmDiggs 12y agoThis is one of my favorite books: http://www.amazon.com/Worlds-Great-Speeches-Fourth-Enlarged-ebook/dp/B008TVM050/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1409789052&sr=8-2 http://www.amazon.com/Worlds-Great-Speeches-Fourth-Enlarged-... Has roughly ~300 speeches in it and they're fairly well picked.
