Freedom of the press is guaranteed only to those who own one.
censorship quotes by ALFRED WHITNEY GRISWOLD-1469902277
Books won't 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. The only weapon against bad ideas is better ideas.
censorship quotes by JOHN STUART MILL-1469900518
The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error

We have a natural right to make use of our pens as of our tongue, at our peril, risk and hazard.
censorship quotes by POTTER STEWART-1469890807
Censorship reflects society's lack of confidence in itself. It is a hallmark of an authoritarian regime.
censorship quotes by TOMMY SMOTHERS-1469889329
The only valid censorship of ideas is the right of people not to listen.
censorship quotes by HENRY STEELE COMMAGER-1469781876
The fact is that censorship always defeats its own purpose, for it creates, in the end, the kind of society that is incapable of exercising real discretion.
censorship quotes by JOHN STUART MILL-1469773627
We can never be sure that the opinion we are endeavoring to stifle is a false opinion; and if we were sure, stifling it would be an evil still.
cats quotes by RALPH WALDO EMERSON-1469771874
Do you see that kitten chasing so prettily her own tail? If you could look with her eyes, you might see her surrounded with hundreds of figures performing complex dramas, with tragic and comic issues, long conversations, many characters, many ups and downs of fate.
cats quotes by ERIC GURNEY-1469724311
Cat lovers can readily be identified. Their clothes always look old and well used. Their sheets look like bath towels and their bath towels look like a collection of knitting mistakes.

cats quotes by PIERRE LOTI-1469638493

cats quotes by JEAN COCTEAU-1469630106
I love cats because I love my home and after a while they become its visible soul.
cats quotes by IRVING TOWNSEND-1469599325
Another cat? Perhaps. For love there is also a season; its seeds must be resown. But a family cat is not replaceable like a wornout coat or a set of tires. Each new kitten becomes its own cat, and none is repeated. I am four cats old, measuring out my life in friends that have succeeded but not replaced one another.
censorship quotes by HAROLD R. MEDINA-1469597935
If you don't have this freedom of the press, then all these little fellows are weaseling around and doing their monkey business and they never get caught.
censorship quotes by JOSEPH HENRY JACKSON-1469596263

People that don't like cats haven't met the right one yet.

cats quotes by ELEANOR FARJEON-1469543825
It always gives me a shiver when I see a cat seeing what I can't see.
cats quotes by DAN GREENBURG-1469542533
Cats are dangerous companions for writers because cat watching is a near-perfect method of writing avoidance.
cats quotes by PAUL COREY-1469510851
Any conditioned cat-hater can be won over by any cat who chooses to make the effort.
cats quotes by MISSY ALTIJD-1469508132
When you're used to hearing purring and suddenly it's gone, it's hard to silence the blaring sound of sadness.
cats quotes by MARK TWAIN-1469506713
The man who carries a cat by the tail learns something that can be learned in no other way.

Cats can be cooperative when something feels good, which, to a cat, is the way everything is supposed to feel as much of the time as possible.
cats quotes by JEAN BURDEN-1469469039

cats quotes by SIDNEY DENHAM-1469464697
Although all cat games have their rules and rituals, these vary with the individual player.The cat, of course, never breaks a rule. If it does not follow precedent, that simply means it has created a new rule and it is up to you to learn it quickly if you want the game to continue.

The cat is the animal to whom the Creator gave the biggest eye, the softest fur, the most supremely delicate nostrils, a mobile ear, an unrivaled paw and a curved claw borrowed from the rose-tree.
cats quotes by AUTHOR UNKNOWN-1469379116
No heaven will not ever Heaven beUnless my cats are there to welcome me.
cats quotes by AGNES REPPLIER-1469377635
It is impossible for a lover of cats to banish these alert, gentle, and discriminating little friends, who give us just enough of their regard and complaisance to make us hunger for more.
cats quotes by ARTHUR BRIDGES-1469362831
A cat isn't fussy - just so long as you remember he likes his milk in the shallow, rose-patterned saucer and his fish on the blue plate. From which he will take it, and eat it off the floor.
