Dissent Quotes
	Samuel Adams	And that the said Constitution be never construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press,  or the rights of conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States, who are peaceable citizens, from keeping their own arms; or to raise standing armies, unless necessary for the defense of the United States, or of some one or more of them; or to prevent the people from petitioning, in a peaceable and orderly manner, the federal legislature, for a redress of grievances; or to subject the people to unreasonable searches and seizures of their persons, papers or possessions.
	Carl Friedrich Bahrdt	The freedom to share one’s insights and judgments verbally or in writing is, just like the freedom to think, a holy and inalienable right of humanity that, as a universal human right, is above all the rights of princes.
	Mikhail A. Bakunin	The right to unite freely and to separate freely is the first and most important of all political rights.
	Alan Barth	Thought that is silenced is always rebellious. Majorities, of course, are often mistaken. This is why the silencing of minorities is necessarily dangerous. Criticism and dissent are the indispensable antidote to major delusions.
	Frederic Bastiat	And now that the legislators and do-gooders have so futilely inflicted so many systems upon society, may they finally end where they should have begun: May they reject all systems, and try liberty; for liberty is an acknowledgment of faith in God and His works.
	Saul Bellow	Open discussion of many major public questions has for some time now been taboo. We can’t open our mouths without being denounced as racists, misogynists, supremacists, imperialists or fascists. As for the media, they stand ready to trash anyone so designated.
	Justice Hugo L. Black	What finally emerges from the ‘clear and present danger’ cases is a working principle that the substantive evil must be extremely serious and the degree of imminence extremely high before utterances can be punished…It must be taken as a command of the broadest scope that explicit language, read in the context of a liberty-loving society, will allow.
	Justice Hugo L. Black	An unconditional right to say what one pleases about public affairs is what I consider to be the minimum guarantee of the First Amendment.
	William E. Borah	No more fatuous chimera has ever infested the brain than that you can control opinions by law or direct belief by statute, and no more pernicious sentiment ever tormented the heart than the barbarous desire to do so. The field of inquiry should remain open, and the right of debate must be regarded as a sacred right.
	Justice Louis D. Brandeis	The constitutional right of free speech has been declared to be the same in peace and war. In peace, too, men may differ widely as to what loyalty to our country demands, and an intolerant majority, swayed by passion or by fear, may be prone in the future, as it has been in the past, to stamp as disloyal opinions with which it disagrees.
	James Buchanan	I like the noise of democracy.
	Alan Bullock	No one understood better than Stalin that the true object of propaganda is neither to convince nor even to persuade, but to produce a uniform pattern of public utterance in which the first trace of unorthodox thought immediately reveals itself as a jarring dissonance.
	Edmund Burke	He that wrestles with us strengthens our nerves, and sharpens our skill. Our antagonist is our helper.
	Pablo Casals	Every wrong seems possible today, and is accepted.  I don't accept it.
	Zechariah Chafee, Jr.	You make men love their government and their country by giving them the kind of government and the kind of country that inspire respect and love; a country that is free and unafraid, that lets the discontented talk in order to learn the causes of their discontent and end those causes, that refuses to impel men to spy on their neighbors, that protects its citizens vigorously from harmful acts while it leaves the remedies for objectionable ideas to counter-argument and time.
	Edmund B. Chaffee	The majority of us are for free speech when it deals with subjects concerning which we have no intense feelings.
	William Kingdon Clifford	All our liberties are due to men who, when their conscience has compelled them, have broken the laws of the land.
	Bill Clinton	We can't be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans...
	Jean Baptiste Colbert	The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest possible amount of feathers with the smallest possible amount of hissing.
	Samuel Taylor Coleridge	Every reform, however necessary, will by weak minds be carried to an excess, that itself will need reforming.
	Henry Steele Commager	Censorship always defeats its own purpose, for it creates, in the end, the kind of society that is incapable of exercising real discretion... In the long run it will create a generation incapable of appreciating the difference between independence of thought and subservience.
	Henry Steele Commager	Men in authority will always think that criticism of their policies is dangerous. They will always equate their policies with patriotism, and find criticism subversive.
	Pat Condell	Nobody should be compelled to respect an ideology that doesn’t respect them.
	Benjamin Constant	No duty, however, binds us to these so-called laws, whose corrupting influence menaces what is noblest in our being...
