Harold J. Laski: “They will work just so long as people are determined they shall work, and no longer.”

When attacks on liberty are political or economic, it is their motive rather than their nature that changes.

The only way to deal with novelty is to understand it, and the only way to deal with grievance is to seek a remedy for the complaint it embodies.

Ultimately, that denial is always made upon the same ground: it is insisted that the doctrines or practices attacked are subversive of the civil order.

To deny novelty or grievance a right of expression is a certain, if, indeed, an ultimate, validation of the truth they contain.
