"Censorship is the tool of those who have the need to hide actualities from themselves and from others.

"One of the crafty tricks Satan plays is to guide a person safely on the wrong path. When your safety is the priority, you may be on the wrong path but may not know."
Israelmore Ayivor
"Ignorance follows knowledge, not the other way around."
Stuart Firestein
"Compassion may be defined as the capacity to be attentive to the experience of others, to wish the best for others, and to sense what will truly serve others."
