To suppress a book or a picture or a sculpture or a play or a film is a terrible act of aggression against the artist who created it. This is a miming of capital punishment; it destroys the life that has been emanated by a life.” ~ Rebecca West (1892-1983) British author, journalist, literary critic and travel writerSource: Censorship: For And Against, 1971
