Jean Cocteau

« All quotes from this author
 

The instinct of nearly all societies is to lock up anybody who is truly free. First, society begins by trying to beat you up. If this fails, they try to poison you. If this fails too, they finish by loading honors on your head.
--
As quoted in Moments of Clarity (2002) by Thomas L. Jackson, p. 88
