Best Quotes about Freedom
The free way of life proposes ends, but it does not prescribe means.
Kennedy, Robert F.
The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves.
William Hazlitt
If people have to choose between freedom and sandwiches, they will take sandwiches.
Orr, Lord Boyd
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
I believe in a religion that believes in freedom. Any time I have to accept a religion that won't let me fight a battle for my people, I say to hell with that religion.
Malcolm X
We hear about constitutional rights, free speech and the free press. Every time I hear those words I say to myself, That man is a Red, that man is a Communist. You never heard a real American talk in that manner.
Hague, Frank
It is true that liberty is precious. So precious that it must be rationed.
Lenin, Vladimir Ilyich
You don't have to be a man to fight for freedom. All you have to do is to be an intelligent human being.
Malcolm X
If we catch a glimpse of freedom, we wish to possess it; if we catch a glimpse of death, we want nothing to do with it. One we cannot have, the other we cannot avoid.
Johnson, Jeremy P.
Only that thing is free which exists by the necessities of its own nature, and is determined in its actions by itself alone.
Spinoza, Baruch (Benedict de)
Until economic freedom is attained for everybody, there can be no real freedom for anybody.
La Follette, Suzanne
When a person places the proper value on freedom, there is nothing under the sun that he will not do to acquire that freedom. Whenever you hear a man saying he wants freedom, but in the next breath he is going to tell you what he won't do to get it, or what he doesn't believe in doing in order to get it, he doesn't believe in freedom. A man who believes in freedom will do anything under the sun to acquire... or preserve his freedom.
Malcolm X
Freedom is but the possibility of a various and indefinite activity; while government, or the exercise of dominion, is a single, yet real activity. The longing for freedom, therefore, is at first only too frequently suggested by the deep-felt consciousness of its absence.
Humboldt, Karl Wilhelm Von
He who is conceived in a cage, yearns for the cage.
Yevtushenko, Yevgeny
The free man is he who does not fear to go to the end of his thought.
Blum, Leon
For in the end, freedom is a personal and lonely battle; and one faces down fears of today so that those of tomorrow might be engaged.
Walker, Alice
What a curious phenomenon it is that you can get men to die for the liberty of the world who will not make the little sacrifice that is needed to free themselves from their own individual bondage.
Barton, Bruce
The more internal freedom you achieve, the more you want: it is more fun to be happy than sad, more enjoyable to choose your own emotions than to have them inflicted on you by mechanical glandular processes, more pleasurable to solve your problems than to be stuck with them forever.
Wilson, Robert
There is no liberation without labor... and there is no freedom which is free.
Sahib, The Siri Singh
Every emancipation has in it the seeds of a new slavery, and every truth easily becomes a lie.
Stone, I. F.
Where there is much freedom there is much error.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
A major source of objection to a free economy is precisely that group thinks they ought to want. Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself.
Friedman, Milton
The saving man becomes the free man.
Proverb, Chinese
He who dares not (reason), is a slave.
Drummond, William
Marks on paper are free -- free speech -- press -- pictures all go together I suppose.
O'Keeffe, Georgia
In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
They want to be free and they do not know how to be just.
Sieyes, Abbe
Freedom is the by-product of economic surplus.
Bevan, Aneurin
The traveler has reached the end of the journey! In the freedom of the infinite he is free from all sorrows, the fetters that bound him are thrown away, and the burning fever of life is no more.
Dhammapada
Emancipation from the bondage of the soil is no freedom for the tree.
Tagore, Rabindranath
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
Adams, John
People who exercise their embryonic freedom day after day, little by little, expand that freedom. People who do not will find that it withers until they are literally being lived. They are acting out scripts written by parents, associates and society.
Covey, Stephen R.
It is quite possible for someone to choose incorrectly or to judge badly; but freedom must allow such mistakes.
Sang Kyu Shin
Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity.
Hoover, Herbert Clark
Freedom is poetry, taking liberties with words, breaking the rules of normal speech, violating common sense. Freedom is violence.
Brown, Norman O.
The moment the slave resolves that he will no longer be a slave. His fetters fall... freedom and slavery are mental states.
Gandhi, Mahatma
Liberty is one of the most precious gifts which heaven has bestowed on man; with it we cannot compare the treasures which the earth contains or the sea conceals; for liberty, as for honor, we can and ought to risk our lives; and, on for the other hand, captivity is the greatest evil that can befall man.
Cervantes, Miguel De
A forest bird never wants a cage.
Ibsen, Henrik
We are free to yield to truth.
Horace
To know what you prefer instead of humbly saying Amen to what the world tells you you ought to prefer, is to have kept your soul alive.
Robert Louis Stevenson
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
The only way to make sure people you agree with can speak is to support the rights of people you don't agree with.
Norton, Eleanor Holmes
When ever a separation is made between liberty and justice, neither is safe.
Burke, Edmund
The very aim and end of our institutions is just this: that we may thing what we like and say what we think.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Who then is free? The wise man who can govern himself.
Horace
Freedom and love go together. Love is not a reaction. If I love you because you love me, that is mere trade, a thing to be bought in the market; it is not love. To love is not to ask anything in return, not even to feel that you are giving something- and it is only such love that can know freedom.
Krishnamurti, Jiddu
To be what no one ever was, to be what everyone has been: Freedom is the mean of those extremes that fence all effort in.
Doren, Mark Van
Freedom is not being a slave to any circumstance, to any constraint, to any chance; it means compelling Fortune to enter the lists on equal terms.
Seneca
No matter what a man does, he is not fully sane or human unless there is a spirit of freedom in him, a soul unconfined by purpose and larger than the practicable world.
Cooley, Charles Horton
Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth.
Washington, George
