Freedom
The history of free men is never written by chance but by choice - their choice.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower
Freedom is not the absence of commitments, but the ability to choose - and commit myself to - what is best for me.
- Paulo Coelho
Liberty is the only thing you cannot have unless you are willing to give it to others.

- Malcolm X
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
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
- Benjamin Franklin
So long as the state exists there is no freedom. When there is freedom, there will be no state.
- Vladimir Lenin
Better to die on one's feet than to live on one's knees.
- Jean Paul Sartre
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
Freedom is not doing what we want, but what we should.
- Victor Manuel Rivera
