Freedom cannot be labeled nor won nor envied. Only when one doesn't realize what freedom is, is one truly free.

Quotations
Freedom
Most people would look at an animal in a cage and instinctively feel that it should be set free. . . . It's a dangerous world out there, filled with predators. . . . What would you prefer? A comfortable, safe, warm, cosy life in a cage, or an uncertain life of freedom.
-Scarlett Thomas
"Going Out"
Freedom is not an individual effort.
Yours comes only when you grant others theirs
-Sergio Aragonés
"The Groo Chronicles"
Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.
-Abraham Lincoln
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"
Man is condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does.
-Jean Paul Sartre
Freedom: both so priceless and so expensive.
-Patricia Duncker

Freedom has cost too much blood and agony to be relinquished at the cheap price of rhetoric.
-Thomas Sowell
"Knowledge And Decisions"
...true freedom is impossible without a mind made free by discipline.
-Mortimer Jerome Adler
"How to Read a Book: The Classic Bestselling Guide to Reading Books and Accessing Information"
