A great quote I saw online this morning:
***
"The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost a great benefit, the clearer perception and livlier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error." - John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, 1859
