Remember

The penalty that good men pay for not being interested in politics is to be governed by men worse than themselves.
- Plato, philosopher (427-347 BCE)

This is a free speech zone

I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. These words were first used by Hall, writing under the pseudonym of Stephen G. Tallentyre in The Friends of Voltaire (1906). They were not a quote, but a paraphrase of Voltaire's attitudes, based on his Essay on Tolerance where he asserts: "Think for yourselves and let others enjoy the privilege to do so too". Its ultimate origin may lie in a letter to M. le Riche (February 6, 1770): "Monsieur l'abbé, I detest what you write, but I would give my life to make it possible for you to continue to write."
