"The freedom to share one’s insights and judgments verbally or in writing is,
just like the freedom to think, a holy and inalienable right of humanity that,
as a universal human right, is above all the rights of princes."
-- Carl Friedrich Bahrdt
(1740-1792)
Source: On Freedom of The Press and Its Limits, 1787

"Without free speech no search for truth is possible... no discovery of truth is useful.
Better a thousand fold abuse of free speech than denial of free speech.
The abuse dies in a day, but the denial slays the life of the people."
-- Charles Bradlaugh
(1833-1891) English political activist and atheist, founded the National Secular Society in 1866
Source: Speech, 1890

"We have a natural right
to make use of our pens as of our tongue,
at our peril, risk and hazard."
