Quotations
Freedom
Freedom cannot be labeled nor won nor envied. Only when one doesn't realize what freedom is, is one truly free.
- D. J. Niko
I have come to realize that men are not born to be free.
- Napoleon Bonaparte
For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.
- Nelson Mandela
Freedom is limited by the need to coexist.
- Toba Beta
So long as the state exists there is no freedom. When there is freedom, there will be no state.
- Vladimir Lenin
Freedom is never given; it is won.
- A. Philip Randolph
A person’s freedom can be seen as being valuable in addition to his or her achievements.
- Amartya Sen
A man is truly free, even here in this embodied state, if he knows that God is the true agent and he by himself is powerless to do anything.
- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Freedom would be not to choose between black and white but to abjure such prescribed choices.
- Theodor W. Adorno
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
