“What I tell kids is, Don’t get mad, get even. Don’t spend time waving signs or carrying petitions around the neighborhood. Instead, run, don’t walk, to the nearest nonschool library or to the local bookstore and get whatever it was that they banned. Read whatever they’re trying to keep out of your eyes and your brain, because that’s exactly what you need to know.”
~Stephen King
“Censorship is the child of fear and the father of ignorance.”
~Laurie Halse Anderson
“Any book worth banning is a book worth reading.”
~Isaac Asimov
“A dangerous book will always be in danger from those it threatens with the demand that they question their assumptions. They’d rather hang on to the assumptions and ban the book.”
~Ursula Le Guin
“I can’t imagine a greater compliment for an author than making the banned book section.”
~Chris Colfer
