"All of us can think of a book... that we hope none of our children or any other children have taken off the shelf. But if I have the right to remove from the shelf -- that book I abhor -- then you also
have exactly the same right and so does everyone else. And then we have no books left on the shelf for any of us." Katherine Patterson
"Free inquiry requires that we tolerate diversity of opinion and that we respect the right of individuals to express their beliefs, however unpopular they may be, without social or legal prohibition
or fear of success." Paul Kurtz
"The weapon of the dictator is not so much propaganda as censorship." Terence H. Qualter
"The more subsidized it is, the less free it is. What is known as 'free education' is the least free of all, for it is a state-owned institution; it is socialized education -- just like socialized medicine or the socialized post office -- and cannot possibly be separated from political control." Frank Chodorov
"The greatest danger to liberty today comes from the men who are most needed and most powerful in modern government, namely, the efficient expert administrators exclusively concerned with what they regard as the public good." Friedrich August von Hayek
