“Let us be clear: censorship is cowardice. ... It masks corruption. It is a school of torture: it teaches, and accustoms one to the use of force against an idea, to submit thought to an alien "other." But worst still, censorship destroys criticism, which is the essential ingredient of culture.” StillsIdeasUseSchoolCultureForceTeachClearWorstEssentialsCriticismCorruptionAliensTortureMaskIngredientsCensorshipCowardiceSubmitUse Of Force Author:Pablo Antonio Cuadra
“The only way to escape misrepresentation is never to commit oneself to any critical judgement that makes an impact - that is, never to say anything. I still, however think that the best way to promote profitable discussion is to be as clear as possible with oneself about what one sees and judges, to try and establish the essential discriminations in the given field of interest, and to state them as clearly as one can (for disagreement, if necessary).” IfsThinkingWayTryingStillsStatesGivenInterestClearFieldsJudgingEssentialsImpactOneselfCriticalDiscriminationBest WayCommitDiscussionJudgementSay AnythingProfitableDisagreementMisrepresentation Author:F.
