Authors:
  • You make men love their government and their country by giving them the kind of government and the kind of country that inspire respect and love; a country that is free and unafraid, that lets the discontented talk in order to learn the causes of their discontent and end those causes, that refuses to impel men to spy on their neighbors, that protects its citizens vigorously from harmful acts while it leaves the remedies for objectionable ideas to counter-argument and time.

    Commission on Freedom of the Press, Zechariah Chafee (1947). “Government and Mass Communications”, Chicago : University of Chicago Press
