Phillip Pullman's Riposte

"[...] And if they open it and read it, they don't have to like it.
And if you read it and dislike it, you don't have to remain silent about it.

You can write to the publishers, to the papers,
You can write your own book.
You can do all those things.

But there your rights stop. [...]"
