Quote from Caryl Parker Haskins 

"A society committed to the search for truth must give protection to,
and set a high value upon, the independent and original mind,
however angular, however rasping, however, socially unpleasant it may be;
for it is upon such minds in large measure, that the effective search
for truth depends."
