Christie Donner

William Orville Douglas
“The dominant purpose of the First Amendment was to prohibit the widespread practice of government suppression of embarrassing information.”
“You can't crush ideas by suppressing them. You can only crush them by ignoring them.”
Vachel Lindsay
“The most thoroughly and relentlessly Damned, banned, excluded, condemned, forbidden, ostracized, ignore, suppressed, repressed, robbed, brutalized and defamed of all Damned Things is the individual human being. The social engineers, statistician, psychologist, sociologists, market researchers, landlords, bureaucrats, captains of industry, bankers, governors, commissars, kings and presidents are perpetually forcing this Damned Thing into carefully prepared blueprints and perpetually irritated that the Damned Thing will not fit into the slot assigned it. The theologians call it a sinner and try to reform it. The governor calls it a criminal and tries to punish it. the psychologist calls it a neurotic and tries to cure it. Still, the Damned Thing will not fit into their slots.”
Robert Anton Wilson
“Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with deeper fangs than freedom never endangered”
