The power of rhetoric is recognized in notable speeches whose message and influence are longstanding. Former President George W. Bush addressed the nation on September 11, 2001. His words helped to reaffirm confidence in his leadership at a time of great distress and extend hope to a shaken populace.

Michael Ferson is the speech writer responsible for this address (Smith Davies, 2005, p.221).

A powerful quote from this speech: "We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them."
