Nothing is more despicable than respect based on fear.

It is a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.

Freedom is nothing but a chance to be better.

A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad.

Without freedom, no art art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others.
