Spoken words have long played a big role in the individual and collective lives of the people.
Challenges have been made, wars have been won, blood has been shed, peace has been achieved and Mankind has reached for the stars, all as a result of the magical words of a few who knew how to deliver them.
And this is one thing that hasn't changed even with the development of various modern media. Nothing has replaced the power of a speech that can influence the attitudes and thoughts of the whole of mankind.
