WORDmeister note: Former Charlie Hebdo employees and colleagues vow that the magazine will publish next week on schedule.
  

Liberté sans peur

“All the time when we met we tried to make fun and joke about the crazy stupid people who were violent enough to be afraid of a simple cartoon. They can continue to be afraid, because there will be more cartoons. . . .
 
“There is no choice when you are a journalist and you want to be free and you refuse to be silenced just because a violent, stupid guy wants you to be silent. You continue to do what you do, what you know how to do, which is to be free.”
