Being There


If you could be in the audience, a few feet away from the speaker, for one of the most famous speeches in history, which one would that be?

[I'll post my choice later.]

[Update: Some great picks in the comments below. My own choice would be the Sermon on the Mount.]

Dan,

I'm with you. I was trying to decide whether to attend Antony second or perhaps listen to this on the coming Crispian's Day.

I could stand near Lincoln or hear blood, toil, sweat or tears, too, without disappointment.

Good selections.

My choice would be the Sermon on the Mount.
