If you're not ready to die for it, put the word 'freedom' out of your vocabulary.
-Malcolm X
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.
Liberty a word without which all other words are vain.
-Robert G. Ingersoll
I have come to realize that men are not born to be free.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
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.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Freedom has cost too much blood and agony to be relinquished at the cheap price of rhetoric.
-Thomas Sowell
"Knowledge And Decisions"
If you want to be free, there is but one way; it is to guarantee an equally full measure of liberty to all your neighbors. There is no other.
-Carl Schurz
Either man is wholly determined or else man is wholly free.
-Jean Paul Sartre
Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
We must be free not because we claim freedom, but because we practice it.
