Famous Speeches By Word Clouds

Guess who gave these famous speeches based upon the word clouds formed from the text of each speech. A word cloud is a collection of the most common words in a text. The more common a word, the larger it appears.
The shape of the word cloud correlates with the starting letter of a word in the title of the speech.
One of these speeches was originally given in French.
Inspired by the amazing Word Cloud Quizzes of rg1227.

Great quiz and amazing concept!

It would be nice if some of there was slightly less of a bias toward American history (having a third of the speeches being made by presidents is a bit much), and maybe if the last line was reordered to prevent the current... unfortunate wording, but it's has my nomination either way.

Thank you for the comment and nomination.

That certainly was an unfortunate alignment in the last row! I've changed the layout to two per row to eliminate that. I've also added one more non-American speech to the quiz.
