“The question about progress has become the question whether we can discover any way of submitting to the worldwide paternalism of a technocracy without losing all personal privacy and independence.

“Only the incompetent wait until the last extremity to use force and by then, it is usually too late to use anything, even prayer.” H.

“It is an unfortunate reality in many of the journalistic environments we exist today.

“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police. Yet in their hearts there is unspoken – unspeakable – fear! They are afraid of words and thoughts! Words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home, all the more powerful because they are forbidden. These terrifyRead more

“Books will not stay banned. They won’t burn. Ideas won’t go to jail. In the long run of history, the censor and the inquisitor have always lost.

“Freedom of the press, or to be more precise, the benefit of freedom of the press, belongs to everyone – to the citizen as well as the publisher… The crux is not the publisher’s ‘freedom to print’, rather, it is the citizen’s ‘right to know.’” Arthur Hays Sulzberger Since last week’s mystery aircraft was ratherRead more

“It is our attitude toward free thought and free expression that will determine our fate. There must be no limit on the range of temperate discussion, no limits on thought. No subject must be taboo.
