Either man is wholly determined or else man is wholly free.
-Jean Paul Sartre
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.
The only way to achieve freedom is to free your mind from the world we live in.
-Salvatore Palladino
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 not the absence of commitments, but the ability to choose - and commit myself to - what is best for me.
-Paulo Coelho

-Scarlett Thomas
