Quotations
Freedom
Without Freedom or Liberty, creativity cannot exist.
-Richard Diaz
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"
Freedom begins the moment you realize someone else has been writing your story and it's time you took the pen from his hand and started writing it yourself.
-Bill Moyers
When faith in our freedom gives way to fear of our freedom, silencing the minority view becomes the operative protocol.
-Joel Salatin
"Everything I Want to Do Is Illegal: War Stories from the Local Food Front"
Liberty: One of Imagination's most precious possessions.
-Ambrose Bierce
How can you be free, if you don't even know you're trap or lock inside?
-Ann Marie Aguilar
For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.

Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.

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!
