Absolute Difference

Famous quotes containing the words absolute and/or difference:

“As liberty of thought is absolute, so is liberty of speech, which is “inseparable” from the liberty of thought. Liberty of speech, moreover, is essential not only for its own sake but for the sake of truth, which requires absolute liberty for the utterance of unpopular and even demonstrably false opinions.”
—Gertrude Himmelfarb (b. 1922)

“The difference between heresy and prophecy is often one of sequence. Heresy often turns out to have been prophecy—when properly aged.”
