George OrwellFreedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
George OrwellMan is the only creature that consumes without producing. He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits.

One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.
