“Language is courage: the ability to conceive a thought, to speak it, and by doing so to make it true.”

“What is freedom of expression? Without the freedom to offend, it ceases to exist.”

“Whenever someone who knows you disappears, you lose one version of yourself. Yourself as you were seen, as you were judged to be. Lover or enemy, mother or friend, those who know us construct us, and their several knowings slant the different facets of our characters like diamond-cutter's tools. Each such loss is a step leading to the grave, where all versions blend and end.”
― Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet
