Ambassadors

Silvia Jato

"There is no better word than the one that convinces you. Be yourself."

Vicente Vallés

"Just as Caesar's wife, in addition to being Caesar's wife, must appear to be Caesar's wife, in a debate, in addition to knowing what you are talking about, you must show that you know what you are talking about."

Nico Abad

"Remember that, as Paul Auster said, the key is 'form and coherence, structure, rhythm and surprise'."

Esther Vaquero

"Prepare your arguments and be ready to listen and understand your opponent's logic. To convince, it is as important to speak as it is to know how to listen."

Fernando Ónega

"To speak is the privilege of the human being; to debate is to seek reason and, with it, to find the truth."

Jorge Gallardo

"The best argument is the one you can't find on Google."

Jesus Maraña

"The ability to discuss is a barometer of democratic quality. Principles and arguments matter, but knowing how to listen is the best antidote against sectarianism."

José Antonio López Guerrero

"There is no better word than the one that convinces you. Be yourself."

Carmen Chaparro

"We always communicate with an intention. Seek it out. And then persuade - with all your weapons - your audience to think, feel or do that."

María José Sáez

"Believe in what you say but don't think you are more than anyone else. Humility is the basis of communication."

Raquel Martos

"Communication is the tool that allows us to connect our brain and our heart with the brain and heart of another human being."

Rubén Amón

"In the beginning, the verb."

José Ignacio Torreblanca

"Free debate among equal citizens is the essence of democracy. Your efforts to improve your ability to debate and deliberate will contribute not only to making you better people and citizens but to improving your country and your democracy."

Marta González Novo

"Public speaking, your vital and professional safeguard."

Sonsoles Ónega
