Quotations
Freedom
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"
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"
The history of free men is never written by chance but by choice - their choice.
-Dwight D. Eisenhower
Without Freedom or Liberty, creativity cannot exist.
-Richard Diaz

-Scarlett Thomas
