Sam Sheppard I don't believe in censorship in any form. Kathryn Bigelow I have a problem with censorship by the lawyer - by legal people by the publishing firm, and I may be changing publishers.

Mae West Storytelling is the only studio movie where the censorship is perfectly clear, the only studio movie with a big red box covering up a shot. I take pride in that - and, of course, in having avoided the fate of Eyes Wide Shut. Todd Solondz The censorship is such on television in the U.S. that films like mine don't stand a chance. John Pilger The fact is that censorship always defeats its own purpose, for it creates, in the end, the kind of society that is incapable of exercising real discretion. Henry Steele Commager The first condition of progress is the removal of censorship. George Bernard Shaw The internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. John Gilmour |
