Freedom

Any nation that thinks more of its ease and comfort than its freedom will soon lose its freedom; and the ironical thing about it is that it will lose its ease and comfort too.
- Maugham, W. Somerset

Best Quotes about Freedom

The sound of tireless voices is the price we pay for the right to hear the music of our own opinions.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

2.
Freedom is the most contagious virus known to man.
Humphrey, Hubert H.

3.
Liberty will not descend to a people; a people must raise themselves to liberty; it is a blessing that must be earned before it can be enjoyed.
Colton, Charles Caleb

The higher one climbs on the spiritual ladder, the more they will grant others their own freedom, and give less interference to another's state of consciousness.
Twitchell, Paul

If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all.
Chomsky, Noam

Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fangs than freedom never endangered.
Cicero, Marcus T.

7.

Adams, John

Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
Orwell, George

A people which is able to say everything becomes able to do everything.

It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things: freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either of them.
Mark Twain

15.
The first principle of a free society is an untrammeled flow of words in an open forum.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

16.
Every man has a right to utter what he thinks truth, and every other man has a right to knock him down for it. Martyrdom is the test.
Johnson, Samuel

17.
The saving man becomes the free man.
Proverb, Chinese

18.

Baruch, Bernard M.

19.
The sovereignty of one's self over one's self is called Liberty.
Pike, Albert

Sackville-West, Vita

Freedom is the last, best hope of earth.
Lincoln, Abraham

In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

Lincoln, Abraham

26.
We are free to yield to truth.
Horace

27.
It is quite impossible to guarantee world peace. But is should be possible to guarantee world freedom.

28.
What we want is not freedom but its appearances. It is for these simulacra that man has always striven. And since freedom, as has been said, is no more than a sensation, what difference is there between being free and believing ourselves free?
Cioran, E. M.

29.
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end.
Lord Acton

Freedom, then, lies only in our innate human capacity to choose between different sorts of bondage, bondage to desire or self esteem, or bondage to the light that lightens all our olives.

Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider

32.
Seek freedom and become captive of your desires. Seek discipline and find your liberty.
Herbert, Frank

33.
While the State exists, there can be no freedom. When there is freedom there will be no State.
Lenin

34.
The law will never make men free, it is men that have to make the law free.
Thoreau, Henry David

35.
Only very slowly and late have men come to realize that unless freedom is universal it is only extended privilege.
Hill, Christopher

36.
Self-reliance is the only road to true freedom, and being one's own person is its ultimate reward.
Patricia Sampson

37.
A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.
Pound, Ezra

38.
When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of that old Negro spiritual, Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!
King Jr. Martin Luther
