About This Quote

When it comes to ideas, you can imprison a man, but not an idea. You can exile a man, but not an idea. You can kill a man, but not an idea. This quote is meant to show that the only way to stop the spread of ideas is by physically putting people in prisons or exiling them to other countries.

However, ideas are not meant to be confined nor are they meant to be killed. Ideas are free and should never be stopped by anyone. The world would be a better place if more people would think before opening their mouths to say something that they would regret later on.
