Submitting to censorship is to enter the seductive world of 'The Giver': the world where there are no bad words and no bad deeds. But it is also the world where choice has been taken away and reality distorted. And that is the most dangerous world of all.

I worry about censorship in many parts of the world.

I am seriously opposed to censorship of any sort.

I think what we have in this country is a little more dangerous in a way because it can't be seen fully. It's sorta internal censorship. We censor each other.

We can self-censor ourselves for various reasons, but we can't live in a world where some person or some group decides what's offensive and what's not.

We live in a frightened time, and people self-censor all the time and are afraid of going into some subjects because they are worried about violent reactions.

I am still against any kind of censorship. It's a subject in my life that has been very important.

I don't believe in censorship in any form.

The internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.

Whatever the immediate gains and losses, the dangers to our safety arising from political suppression are always greater than the dangers to the safety resulting from political freedom. Suppression is always foolish. Freedom is always wise.
