Quotations
Freedom
Freedom: both so priceless and so expensive.
-Patricia Duncker
"Sisters And Strangers: An Introduction To Contemporary Feminist Fiction"

"Knowledge And Decisions"
Freedom is that instant between when someone tells you to do something and when you decide how to respond.
-Jeffrey T. Borenstein
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"
He who has overcome his fears will truly be free.
-Aristotle
I have come to realize that men are not born to be free.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
Liberty is the only thing you cannot have unless you are willing to give it to others.

Freedom is nothing else but a chance to be better.
-Albert Camus
