Robert Benchley
“After an author has been dead for some time, it becomes increasingly difficult for his publishers to get a new book out of him each year.”
Robert Benchley

James    Howe
“Banning books is just another form of bullying. It's all about fear and an assumption of power. The key is to address the fear and deny the power.”
James Howe

Madeleine L'Engle
“I like here to think of another Fred, the eminent British scientist Fred Hoyle, and his theory of the universe, in which matter is continuously being created, with the universe expanding but not dissipating. As island galaxies rush away from each other into eternity, new clouds of gas are condensing into new galaxies. As old stars die, new stars are being born. Mr. Melcher lived in this universe of continuous creation and expansion.”
Madeleine L'Engle, A Wrinkle in Time Quintet

Isaac Asimov
“Any book worth banning is a book worth reading.”
Isaac Asimov

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“I hate it that Americans are taught to fear some books and some ideas as though they were diseases.”
Kurt Vonnegut
