The author discusses the limits, the power and the dangers of speech, seen as the essential mode of all philosophical 'acts'. The place of speech in the public sphere is mentioned in relation to the politico-religious debates that have taken place in Denmark in the last few years. The paper returns to and develops the inaugural speech at the World Philosophy Conference in Seoul, South Korea, in July 2008
