An injury is much sooner forgotten than an insult. (Quote by - Lord Chesterfield)
Books are the best of things, well used; abused, among the worst. What is the right use? What is the one end, which all means go to effect? They are for nothing but to inspire. (Quote by - Ralph Waldo Emerson)
Without free speech no search for truth is possible; without free speech progress is checked and the nations no longer march forward toward the nobler life which the future holds for man. Better a thousandfold abuse of free speech than denial of free speech. The abuse dies in a day, but the denial stays the life of the people, and entombs the hope of the race. (Quote by - Charles Bradlaugh (1833 - 1891))
Beware of him that is slow to anger; for when it is long coming, it is the stronger when it comes, and the longer kept. Abused patience turns to fury. (Quote by - Francis Quarles (1592 - 1644))
Never judge a philosophy by its abuse. (Quote by - Saint Augustine)
We cannot have peace among men whose hearts find delight in killing any living creature. (Quote by - Rachel Carson)
Don't abuse your friends and expect them to consider it criticism. (Quote by - Edgar Watson Howe)

Terrorism is in good part an effect of government propaganda; it serves to deflect attention from governmental abuse toward a mostly imagined, highly dangerous outside enemy. (Quote by - Mark Poster)
Whatever you do, trample down abuses, and love those who love you. Different translation: Whatever you do, crush the infamous thing [superstition], and love those who love you. (Quote by - Voltaire (1694 - 1778))
Chaos of thought and passion, all confused; Still by himself abused or disabused; Created half to rise, and half to fall; Great lord of all things, yet a prey to all; Sole judge of truth, in endless error hurled,- The glory, jest, and riddle of the world. (Quote by - Alexander Pope (1688 - 1744))
The majority, oppressing an individual, is guilty of a crime, abuses its strength, and by acting on the law of the strongest breaks up the foundations of society. (Quote by - Thomas Jefferson)
The word 'conservative' is used by the BBC as a portmanteau word of abuse for anyone whose views differ from the insufferable, smug, sanctimonious, naive, guilt-ridden, wet, pink orthodoxy of that sunset home of the third-rate minds of that third-rate decade, the nineteen-sixties. (Quote by - Norman Tebbit)
These birds and animals and fish cannot speak, but they can suffer, and our God who created them, knows their sufferings, and will hold him who causes them to suffer unnecessarily to answer for it. It is a sin against their Creator. (Quote by - George Q. Cannon)
