"If you shut up truth and bury it under the ground, it will but grow, and gather to itself such explosive power that the day it bursts through it will blow up everything in its way."
As quoted in Dreyfus : His Life and Letters (1937) edited by Pierre Dreyfus, p. 175.
~Émile Zola (2 April 1840 – 29 September 1902)
