Dawn’s Quotes

“If it wants a soul, then yes. Every town needs a bookstore.”

“The important task of literature is to free man, not to censor him, and that is why Puritanism was the most destructive and evil force which ever oppressed people and their literature: it created hypocrisy, perversion, fears, sterility.”
― Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 4: 1944-1947

tags: banned-books, censorship, evil, fear, freedom, hypocrisy, intellectual-freedom, literature, perversion, puritanism, sterility
