So watch the thought and its ways with care, And let it spring from love Born out of concern for all beings. He that complies against his will, Is of his own opinion still. The only tyrant I accept in this world is the still voice within. Liberate the minds of men and ultimately you will liberate the bodies of men.
Heresy is only another word for freedom of thought.
Sacred cows make the tastiest hamburger. It is not the answer that enlightens, but the question. Intellectual liberty is the air of the soul, the sunshine of the mind and without it, the world is a prison, the Universe is a dungeon. I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it. New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without any other reason but because they are not common.
