Quotations are an abundant resource for inspiration and guidance passed down by great and revered minds before us. Using quotations in your speeches is a great way to add impact, credibility, stimulate recall, and enhance the overall effectiveness of any speech to convey a specific message and achieve a desired purpose especially when deciding how to open a speech.

Quotations can distill and summarize the key points in a speech. The audience may not remember everything you said in your speech, but with a smart and memorable quote, they will undoubtedly recall your essential message for a lifetime.
It can take quite a bit of searching to find a quotation that encapsulates a main idea of your speech, but when you find one, it’s like finding a priceless diamond.
