– Thomas Paine, 1783

“Free speech exercised both individually and through a free press, is
a necessity in any country where people are themselves free.”

– Theodore Roosevelt, 1918

“The truth is found when men are free to pursue it.”

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people

– Robert F. Kennedy, 1964

“Go f*** yourself.”

– Dick Cheney, 2004 Alternate link
