How absurd men are! They never use the liberties they have, they demand those they do not have. They have freedom of thought, they demand freedom of speech.

About This Quote

This quote is a good reminder that even when people are in an area where they are free to do what they want, they still often use it in the wrong way. Freedom of thought is wonderful, but too many people abuse it by disagreeing with others or saying hurtful things. Freedom of speech means it is okay to be able to say whatever you want without being silenced or punished for it.
