People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.
People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.
A nod to Kierkegaard and Walker Percy: existentialist tomfoolery, political satire, literary homage, word mongering, a year-round summer reading club, Dylanesque music bits, apocalyptic marianism, poetry, fiction, meta-porn, a prisoner work-release program.

really? do you know where he says that?
I thought it was from a journal entry, but according to this, it’s from Either/Or. You can also get it on a t-shirt here.
I like this version better:
“Aren’t people absurd! They never use the freedoms they do have but demand those they don’t have; they have freedom of thought, they demand freedom of speech.”
As quoted from Either/Or in the above link. Maybe one version occurs in E/O and the other in a journal entry.
