Censors will try to censor a little bit more each year (because, like editors and other officious people, censors don't feel they are getting anywhere unless they are up and doing).

The Superego, in censoring the unconscious and in implanting conscience, also censors the censor.
Herbert Marcuse
Censors are dead men
set up to judge between life and death.
For no live, sunny man would be a censor,
he'd just laugh.D. H. Lawrence
Censors feel they are safe from objectionable material but must protect others who are not as smart or moral. The same impulse tempts the reviewer of 'The Believer'... If the wrong people get the wrong message - well, there has never been any shortage of wrong messages. Or wrong people.
Roger Ebert
No government ought to be without censors; and where the press is free, none ever will.
Anatole France
No government ought to be without censors; and where the press is free no one ever will.
Thomas Jefferson
