Free speech is a valuable commodity, which we preserve and protect, but there quite rightly is restriction on free speech in the best interest of the good order of the community and common sense.
Asking why rappers always talk about their stuff is like asking why Milton is forever listing the attributes of heavenly armies. Because boasting is a formal condition of the epic form. And those taught that they deserve nothing rightly enjoy it when they succeed in terms the culture understands.
Every nation necessarily inhabits a morally compromised space. All too often our ideals seem to be held to ransom by what we believe, rightly or wrongly, to be objective reality.
And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: it is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye.
Organizations like the ACLU fought and won the good fight back in the 1960’s, but it’s clear that nowadays they’ve run out of useful things to do since they now spend most of their time defending the scum of the Earth from getting what they rightly deserve.
How easy it is to judge rightly after one sees what evil comes from judging wrongly!

In the U.S. the powerful critics of austerity such as Paul Krugman and Robert Reich rightly identify the decline of ‘labor’ as a problem, and renewing trade unionism part of the solution. Our opportunity is to make the same case in the UK.
Equality, rightly understood as our founding fathers understood it, leads to liberty and to the emancipation of creative differences; wrongly understood, as it has been so tragically in our time, it leads first to conformity and then to despotism.
I think that everyone is kind of confused about the information they get from the media and rightly so. I’m confused about the information I get from the media.
League of Legends’ is banned in my house and rightly so. It is just awful. In the past, I’ve been staying up and playing it. Then all of a sudden, it is 6 A.M., the birds are tweeting and I’m thinking: ‘Oh my God, I’ve got to get up in a couple of hours to take my son Alexander to school. Then I’ve got to practise.’
If we remind ourselves of the fact that every fifth American today rightly points and perhaps also with a certain degree of pride to his German ancestry or her German ancestry, we can safely say that we, indeed, share common roots.
I think of America not so much as a single country but as a constellation of groups out there competing for air time, energetically expressing themselves and luxuriating in their right to govern themselves. Freedom is that great vaunted word that’s always applied to our country – and rightly so.
When you talk about professional footballers, rightly or wrongly, people often already have an idea in their head about what they’re like; they’ll paint a picture before they’ve met them.
People do tend to be extremely skeptical, especially of YouTubers – and rightly so.

But while human liberty has engaged the attention of the enlightened, and enlisted the feelings of the generous of all civilized nations, may we not enquire if this liberty has been rightly understood?

People rightly want our political leaders – on all sides – to concentrate on minimising the damage to jobs, living standards and our savings from the banking crisis.
I don’t think the qualifying fixtures excite people. They’re games against countries that we are expected to beat, rightly so, and then how many we score dictates whether it’s a good performance or not.
Spirituality is no different from what we’ve been doing for two thousand years just by going to church and receiving the sacraments, being baptized, learning to pray, and reading Scriptures rightly. It’s just ordinary stuff.
I think commitment is inextricably linked with success, and rightly or wrongly, people with a fierce commitment to their goals – the Kanyes of this world – are really entertaining.
Our intelligence experts are rightly concerned about the use of the TikTok app, especially on U.S. government-issued devices.

Our constituents rightly hold us accountable for results.
It is unfair to suppose that one party has invariably acted rightly, and that the other is responsible for every wrong that has been committed.
China’s use of ‘night soil,’ as the Chinese rightly call a manure that is collected after dark, is probably the reason that its soils are still healthy after four millennia of intensive agriculture, while other great civilizations – the Maya, for one – floundered when their soils turned to dust.
We can’t forbid women from going to the beach because of a costume, even if it is rightly seen as neo-fundamentalist, backward, and shocking.
In the wake of the 2008 recession, Congress and the Obama Administration rightly focused financial regulation on protecting the nation’s financial system from itself.
Since Gamergate, many women I know are reluctant to speak publicly on gender issues, because they fear – rightly – that they will be targeted and harassed.
The purpose of satire has been rightly stated as to strip off the veneer of comforting illusion and cosy half truth, and our job, as I see it, is to put it back again!

We must energetically tackle the significant problems the voters rightly want Washington to be addressing.
While I am prepared to look at all options and to think ‘outside the box’ for effective treatments, I rightly resisted efforts to provide an unproven drug on demand to the American public.

At times when people fear death, they go along with measures that they believe, rightly or wrongly, will save them – even if that means a loss of freedom. Such measures have been popular in the past.

I want to take this opportunity to express, one more time, my deep sadness to those countrymen who feel, rightly, that they were victims of my government.
The shipping industry plays a fundamental role in boosting global trade and prosperity. Maritime leaders have rightly recognised the need to invest in more energy-efficient vessels and to apply measures like slow-steaming. But to ensure a level playing field, collective action is urgently needed across the sector.
It has been rightly said that nothing is unimportant, nothing powerless in the universe; a single atom can dissolve everything, and save everything! What terror! There lies the eternal distinction between good and evil.
Indeed if we Christians so tell our story that Judaism is silenced, then we have not spoken rightly of Christ.
