Free Reed

Famous quotes containing the words free and/or reed:

    Openmindedness should not be fostered because, as Scripture teaches, Truth is great and will prevail, nor because, as Milton suggests, Truth will always win in a free and open encounter. It should be fostered for its own sake.

    At this time in American history, we are like ghosts talking gibberish through different dimensions, and stupid men do not make good make good mediums.
