Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
Quotations
Freedom
There is freedom in stepping out and taking risks when you know at any given moment, you can always begin again.
-Eva Gregory
No person can do this or that to keep another from being truly free. We are always free. Even if imprisoned.
-Leigh LaValle
"The Runaway Countess"
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.
-Kris Kristofferson
The history of free men is never written by chance but by choice - their choice.
-Dwight D. Eisenhower
The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask.
-Jim Morrison
A man is truly free, even here in this embodied state, if he knows that God is the true agent and he by himself is powerless to do anything.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Freedom is only the freedom to say no.
-Jean Paul Sartre
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well-armed lamb.
-Anonymous
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"
