This was just lovely. I listened to the audiobook version and enjoyed hearing each speaker speak their word. So many nuggets of inspiration and positivity were packed into this book!
Dr. Rick Rigsby’s speech was my favourite! Truly inspiring and touching!This audio book was a very nice part of my morning walks for the last week or so. I would listen to it again.
These are NOT the best motivational speeches of all time, but they were interesting. For the best motivational speeches of all time look to Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Martin Luther King Jr, or JFK to name a few.
I can listen to these talks a hundred times! Such classics!
Jim Carrey, Rick Rigsby, and Admiral William H. McRaven were my favorites!
This book should have been called Best Commencement Speeches of All Times (and even that would be generous). There were some gems in there, but there were some duds too.
I don’t think I would consider these the “best”. Good certainly and a couple were moving, but I think there is better content out there.
These are college commencement speeches and due to that specific topic, get somewhat repetitive. Not sure these are the 'best motivational speeches' I've ever heard but I did find them entertaining.
Great choice of words of wisdom from a wide variety of celebrated men and women in the late 20th century. I suppose the title "Some of the Best" would be more appropriate to me.
Hyviä puheita. Pääviesti oli hyvin pitkälti kaikissa sama: älä pelkää epäonnistua.
I didnt go to my commencement ceremony so this was a nice celebration for me!
Listened to it and loved it. It had some swearing that may not be appropriate for kids but otherwise a great listen-to!
Pretty good. I thought a couple of the speeches were a little dry but overall pretty good.
Every single one of these speaches was beautiful and inspirational.... ....and Matthew Mcconaughey, he was unbearable.The audio quality sucked a little at times and I doubt that these are the best speeches ever, but I can still recommend it.
Nice uplifting audiobook. Some speeches are really beautiful - Bill Gates and JK Rowling are 2 examples.
The audiobook version is their actual speeches.
The Best Motivational Speeches of All Times by Bill Gates and others(Audiobook published by Author's Republic, December 7, 2020)4.5 Stars. Author's Republic offers live audio recordings of nine speeches, each inspirational, instructive, witty, self-deprecating and exceptional in their own way, with varying qualities of recording. Excerpts are from the speeches; comments are my own. 1. Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft Corporation and philanthropist. "Harvard's Most Successful Dropout" Speech
Not the “best” by any measure. A few are exceptional (Bill Gates, Rick Rigsby). One is surprisingly good (Jim Carrey). But most felt like I wandered into a mediocre self-help bookstore populated with cliches and obvious ideas and one or two really terrible talks. Also be aware: These are commencement speeches. Not a deal-breaker, as a listener/reader. But a few of the speakers seemed a little too self-conscious about that.
