Fahrenheit 451 (1987)

|
| | We are an impossibility in an impossible universe.
| There is more than one way to burn a book. And the world is full of people running about with lit matches... Every dimwit editor who sees himself as the source of all dreary blanc-mange plain porridge unleavened literature, licks his guillotine and eyes the neck of any author who dares to speak above a whisper or write above a nursery rhyme.
from his essay "Coda", a reaction against censorship | You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.
