Freedom

The primacy of the word, basis of the human psyche, that has in our age been used for mind-bending persuasion and brain-washing pulp, disgraced by Gobbles and debased by advertising copy, remains a force for freedom that flies out between all bars.
- Gordimer, Nadine
Freedom Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Freedom

1.
When we were told that by freedom we understood free enterprise, we did very little to dispel this monstrous falsehood. Wealth and economic well-being, we have asserted, are the fruits of freedom, while we should have been the first to know that this kind of happiness has been an unmixed blessing only in this country, and it is a minor blessing compared with the truly political freedoms, such as freedom of speech and thought, of assembly and association, even under the best conditions.
Arendt, Hannah

2.
What most clearly characterizes true freedom and its true employment is its misemployment.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

3.
Liberty is not merely a privilege to be conferred; it is a habit to be acquired.
George, David Lloyd

4.
Only very slowly and late have men come to realize that unless freedom is universal it is only extended privilege.
Hill, Christopher

5.
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

6.
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

7.
American freedom consists largely in talking nonsense.
Howe, Edgar Watson

8.
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

9.
When I was a boy I used to do what my father wanted. Now I have to do what my boy wants. My problem is: When am I going to do what I want?
Levenson, Samuel

10.
Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity.
Hoover, Herbert Clark

11.
They want to be free and they do not know how to be just.
Sieyes, Abbe

12.
The free man is he who does not fear to go to the end of his thought.
Blum, Leon

13.
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

14.
Liberty is the right to choose, freedom is the result of that choice.

15.
The only conception of freedom I can have is that of the prisoner or the individual in the midst of the State. The only one I know is freedom of thought and action.
Camus, Albert

16.
The sovereignty of one's self over one's self is called Liberty.
Pike, Albert

17.
When the freedom they wished for most was freedom from responsibility, then Athens ceased to be free and was never free again.
Hamilton, Edith

18.
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

19.
Perfect freedom is as necessary to the health and vigor of commerce as it is to the health and vigor of citizenship.
Henry, Patrick

20.
The moment the slave resolves that he will no longer be a slave. His fetters fall... freedom and slavery are mental states.
Gandhi, Mahatma

21.
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

22.
It is not good to be too free. It is not good to have everything one wants.
Pascal, Blaise

23.
The first principle of a free society is an untrammeled flow of words in an open forum.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

24.
We, and all others who believe in freedom as deeply as we do, would rather die on our feet than live on our knees.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

25.
He who is brave is free.
Seneca

26.
We have confused the free with the free and easy.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

27.
No man has received from nature the right to give orders to others. Freedom is a gift from heaven, and every individual of the same species has the right to enjoy it as soon as he is in enjoyment of his reason.
Diderot, Denis

28.
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

29.
Man is born free, yet he is everywhere in chains.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

30.
I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.
Madonna

31.
The greatest blessing of our democracy is freedom. But in the last analysis, our only freedom is the freedom to discipline ourselves.
Baruch, Bernard M.

32.
Whatever the price, identify it now. What will you have to go through to get where you want to be? There is a price you can pay to be free of the situation once and for all. It may be a fantastic price or a tiny one -- but there is a price.
Browne, Harry

33.
This is America. You can do anything here.
Turner, Robert E.

34.
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

35.
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

36.
If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.
Washington, George

37.
Self-reliance is the only road to true freedom, and being one's own person is its ultimate reward.
Patricia Sampson

38.
Just as war is freedom's cost, disagreement is freedom's privilege.
Clinton, Bill

39.
Until economic freedom is attained for everybody, there can be no real freedom for anybody.
La Follette, Suzanne

40.
The English think they are free. They are free only during the election of members of parliament.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

41.
Freedom is just chaos with better lighting.
Foster, Alan Dean

42.
There are always risks in freedom. The only risk in bondage is breaking free.
Bellin, Gita

43.
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

44.
We must determine whether we really want freedom -- whether we are willing to dare the perils of... rebirth... For we never take a step forward without surrendering something that we may have held dear, without dying to that which has been.
Hanson, Virginia

45.
If a nation values anything more than freedom, it will lose its freedom: and the irony of it is that if it is comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that, too.
Maugham, W. Somerset

46.
The grass is always greener where the fence isn't.

47.
No one is truly free, they are a slave to wealth, fortune, the law, or other people restraining them from acting according to their will.
Euripides

48.
It is especially important to encourage unorthodox thinking when the situation is critical: At such moments every new word and fresh thought is more precious than gold. Indeed, people must not be deprived of the right to think their own thoughts.
Yeltsin, Boris

49.
A hungry man is not a free man.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

50.
Everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom.
Albert Einstein
