Quotations
Freedom
If we sincerely want to become a liberated person, then we have to be willing to be independent in a world where so few truly think for themselves.
- Andrew Cohen
Freedom is limited by the need to coexist.
- Toba Beta
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
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well-armed lamb.
- Anonymous
Bondage is of the mind; freedom too is of the mind. If you say ‘I am a free soul. I am a son of God who can bind me' free you shall be.

Freedom would be not to choose between black and white but to abjure such prescribed choices.
- Theodor W. Adorno
Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
- Jim Morrison
Only free men can negotiate, prisoners cannot enter into contracts.
- Nelson Mandela
Freedom has cost too much blood and agony to be relinquished at the cheap price of rhetoric.

- Victor Manuel Rivera
