Quotations
Freedom
If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.
- John F. Kennedy
Only free men can negotiate, prisoners cannot enter into contracts.
- Nelson Mandela

Most people would look at an animal in a cage and instinctively feel that it should be set free. . . . It's a dangerous world out there, filled with predators. . . . What would you prefer? A comfortable, safe, warm, cosy life in a cage, or an uncertain life of freedom.
- Scarlett Thomas
The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask.
- Jim Morrison
Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
Freedom is not the absence of commitments, but the ability to choose - and commit myself to - what is best for me.
- Paulo Coelho
Freedom is nothing else but a chance to be better.
- Albert Camus
It is hard to find a man who has desire for what he has not tasted, or who tastes the world and is untouched. Here in the world some crave pleasure, some seek freedom but it is hard to find a man who wants neither. It is hard to find a man who has an open mind, who neither seeks nor shuns wealth or pleasure, duty or liberation, life or death…He does not want the world to end. He does not mind if it lasts. Whatever befalls him, He lives in happiness.
- Ashtavakra Gita
The history of free men is never written by chance but by choice - their choice.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower
