.. you can speak freely, you can vote, you can speak out any time, there's only one thing you can't do -- you can't be free of being mocked or being offended. that's the condition in Denmark"
George Orwell ("Politics and the English Language," 1946 )
"A scrupulous writer, in every sentence that he writes, will ask himself at least four questions, thus: 1. What am I trying to say? 2. What words will express it? 3. What image or idiom will make it clearer? 4. Is this image fresh enough to have an effect? And he will probably ask himself two more: 1. Could I put it more shortly? 2. Have I said anything that is avoidably ugly?:"
In the syle of Ranganathan:
There is no paper so bad that it cannot be published.
OR "Every paper has its journal"
But: There are some papers so good that they cannot be published anywhere.
