“An inquiry about the attitude towards the release of so-called political prisoners. I should be very sorry to see the United States holding anyone in confinement on account of any opinion that that person might hold. It is a fundamental tenet of our institutions that people have a right to believe what they want to believe and hold such opinions as they want to hold without having to answer to anyone for their private opinion.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“In every party there is one person who, through his dotingly credulous enunciation of party principles, incites the other members to defection.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

—Eugenio Montale (1896–1981)
“I have never injured anybody with a mordant poem; my
verse contains charges against nobody. Ingenuous, I have

in poisonous jest.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
