Great trees in the wind. High mountains with flowing rivers. This book collects leaders from various countries and compiles some of their speeches. These well-known names connect harmony and prestige, relating to the peace and development of regions and even the world. They have naturally been admired and revered by the public, evaluated and collected by history. As symbols of nations and peoples, they were true figures of the times in their respective ethnic groups and eras. What is presented here is the voice of these figures. Some of these leaders are still making headlines, some have retired to the countryside, and some have passed away. At this moment, Blair, Putin, George W. Bush and his father George Bush, Clinton, Gorbachev, Annan, Rabin, Mandela, Arafat, Nixon, Ho Chi Minh appear in our reading, from near to far, forming a profound and unique humanistic landscape. If you arrange these names horizontally, it is almost the world; if you arrange them vertically according to the eras they belong to, it is almost a rough outline of history. They each represent their respective countries and nations. Behind them are vast territories and long years, significant events and unforgettable moments. What constitutes a classic is not much more than the speaker's important status and the major events they are associated with. Standing at the height of the crowd, caring about the world and its people, their speeches will radiate the light of morality and responsibility. These words, like torches, like diamonds, like everything that can emit light, become signs of brightness in the deep darkness of history. When we read these words, we feel: indeed, there are people who can be called elites and great figures. Because of their existence, this place we call the world has become so remarkable.
