That he likes to interact directly and openly with his people and keep them informed is what the line "Speak out to all" reveals in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, the statement is Theban King Oedipus' answer to Creon, his brother-in-law and royal colleague. Creon offers to go inside and in private tell Oedipus about the results of his visit to the oracle at Apollo's shrine. Oedipus prefers to have his people hear the news now instead of later.
