Freedom of Expression

Freedom of Expression
Open yourself, create free space; release the bound one from his bonds. Like a newborn child, freed from the womb, be free to move on every path. Atharva Veda
The wind blows where it will, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know whence it comes or whither it goes; so it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit. John 3.8
Proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. Leviticus 25.10
If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all. Noam Chomsky
At no time is freedom of speech more precious than when a man hits his thumb with a hammer. Marshall Lumsden
The only way to make sure people you agree with can speak is to support the rights of people you don't agree with. Eleanor H Norton
Free speech is the whole thing, the whole ball game. Free speech is life itself. Salman Rushdie
