Fighting patents one by one will never eliminate the danger
of software patents, any more than swatting mosquitoes
will eliminate malaria.

Control over the use of one's ideas really constitutes control over other people's lives; and it is usually used to make their lives more difficult

- Richard Stallman

The great moral question of the twenty-first century is this: if all knowing, all culture, all art, all useful information can be costlessly given to everyone at the same price that it is given to anyone; if everyone can have everything, anywhere, all the time, why is it ever moral to exclude anyone?

- Eben Moglen

 

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

 - Rabindranath Tagore
