  • "Liberty is meaningless where the right to utter one's thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants.

Slavery cannot tolerate free speech. Five years of its exercise would banish the auction block and break every chain in the South."—Frederick Douglass, A Plea for Free Speech (via Spiked's Brendan O'Neill)
