Quotations
Freedom
Garner the strength to keep your 'freedom' intact under any circumstances and
protect your mood at any cost; then whatever may happen to anyone...you will
surely be seated on the ultimate height of joy and success.

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 "Andrew Cohen"
Open up, create free space; release the bound one from his bonds! Like a newborn child, freed from the womb, be free to move on every path!
-Vedas "Atharva Veda"

A person’s freedom can be seen as being valuable in addition to his or her achievements.
-Amartya Sen
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 "Ashtavakra Gita 17:4-7"
Love and freedom are such hideous words. So many cruelties have been done in their name.
-Joseph O'connor
"Star of the Sea"
I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom.
-Bob Dylan
Freedom is only the freedom to say no.
-Jean Paul Sartre
