I sort of have to self-censor sometimes. — © Judah Friedlander
I sort of have to self-censor sometimes.
We [americans] self-regulate ourselves, we self-censor ourselves a lot in this country instead of having someone else censor us so we can blame them. That's not good, either.
Once you get used to censorship, sometimes you self-censor.
The inner censor of the mind of the true believer completes the work of the public censor; his self-discipline is as tyrannical as the obedience imposed by the regime; he terrorizes his own conscience into submission;he carries his private Iron Curtain inside his skull, to protect his illusions against the intrusion of reality.
By writing her self, woman will return to the body which has been more than confiscated from her, which has been turned into the uncanny stranger on display - the ailing or dead figure, which so often turns out to be the nasty companion, the cause and location of inhibitions. Censor the body and you censor breath and speech at the same time. Write your self. Your body must be heard. Only then will the immense resources of the unconscious spring forth.
China may censor YouTube. China may censor Twitter. They won't be able to censor Bitcoin. There's no central authority. There's no one you can go to and say, 'We're going to turn Bitcoin off.'
A lot of times, we censor ourselves before the censor even gets there.
The function of the censor is to censor. He has a professional interest in finding things to suppress.
A censor is an expert in cutting remarks. A censor is a man who knows more than he thinks you ought to.
If I didn't self-censor, I would be in jail, and then I wouldn't be effective at all.
People can't write whatever they want and get away with it. There is a censor for films and TV, there should be a censor for social media as well.
I do have a self-censor; everybody does, or at least most who are not pathological do.
There was an op-ed piece in The New York Times by an evolutionary biologist or somebody - which was a curious place for the opinion to come from - and he said that there's no such thing as a completely free, uncensored medium, that people censor themselves all the time, in deference to hurting other people's feelings, or offending other groups, or in their own, not to provoke a fight. And you do self-censor certain things, and it's not necessarily a bad thing. That's just the way human social interaction works.
Film is such a powerful medium. It's like a weapon and I think you have a duty to self-censor.
Censor: A self-appointed snoophound who sticks his nose in other people's business.
Censor the body and you censor breath and speech at the same time. Write yourself. Your body must be heard.
Our civilisation cannot afford to let the censor-moron loose. The censor-moron does not really hate anything but the living and growing human consciousness.
