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
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"
Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of responsibility.
-Sigmund Freud

Garner the strength to keep your 'freedom' intact under any circumstances and

-Deep Trivedi
Freedom is never given; it is won.
