Kathy Acker, American Activist (1947-1997)
We get on the bandwagon in all sorts of ways - you know minor ways and major ways - like what you've just encountered which isn't censorship exactly, it was something sort of uglier in a way.
Kathy Acker, American Activist (1947-1997)

These censorship people think something is going to promote behavior in people.
Max Cannon, American Artist
Censorship feeds the dirty mind more than the four-letter word itself.
Dick Cavett, American Entertainer (1936-  )
I'm opposed to censorship of any kind, especially by government. But it's plain common sense that producers should target their product with some kind of sensitivity.
Lee Child, British Writer
Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever.
Noam Chomsky, American Activist (1928-  )
Censorship always defeats it own purpose, for it creates in the end the kind of society that is incapable of exercising real discretion.
