A Farewell speech or farewell address is a speech given by an individual leaving a position or place. They are often used by public figures such as politicians as a to the preceding career, or as statements delivered by persons relating to reasons for their leaving. The term is often used as a euphemism for "retirement speech", though it is broader in that it may include geographical or even biological conclusion. In the Classics, a term for a dignified and poetic farewell speech is ''apobaterion'' (ἀποβατήριον), standing opposed to the ''epibaterion'', the corresponding speech made upon arrival. ==Notable farewell speeches== *The speech of Aeneas to Helenus and Andromache, ''Aeneid'', Book III. *George Washington - Washington's Farewell Address where he warned of the dangers of political parties *Dwight D.
