Motivational Quotes
Freedom
How absurd men are! They never use the liberties they have, they demand those they do not have. They have freedom of thought, they demand freedom of speech.

Best Quotes about Freedom
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
Every emancipation has in it the seeds of a new slavery, and every truth easily becomes a lie.
Stone, I. F.
A forest bird never wants a cage.
Ibsen, Henrik
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.
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
Freedom is the last, best hope of earth.
Lincoln, Abraham
Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity.
Hoover, Herbert Clark
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end.
Lord Acton
I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it.
Thomas Jefferson
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.
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)
So free we seem, so fettered we are!
Browning, Robert
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
Freedom is the sure possession of those alone who have the courage to defend it.
Pericles
Freedom consists not in refusing to recognize anything above us, but in respecting something which is above us; for by respecting it, we raise ourselves to it, and, by our very acknowledgment, prove that we bear within ourselves what is higher, and are worthy to be on a level with it
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
There can be no real freedom without the freedom to fail.
Hoffer, Eric
We must be willing to pay a price for freedom.
Mencken, H. L.
Mankind has a free will; but it is free to milk cows and to build houses, nothing more.
Luther, Martin
Freedom is hunting, feeding, danger; that, that is freedom --that it is which makes the veins to swell, the breast to heave and glowaye,that is freedom, --that is pleasure --life!
Lovell, Marie
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.
A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.
Pound, Ezra
Freedom is an internal achievement rather than an external adjustment.
Powell, Adam Clayton
What is freedom? Freedom is the right to choose: the right to create for oneself the alternatives of choice.
Macleish, Archibald
Without freedom, no art; art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others. But without freedom, no socialism either, except the socialism of the gallows.
Camus, Albert
We who officially value freedom of speech above life itself seem to have nothing to talk about but the weather.
Ehrenreich, Barbara
When the freedom they wished for most was freedom from responsibility, then Athens ceased to be free and was never free again.
Hamilton, Edith
In America the majority raises formidable barriers around the liberty of opinion; within these barriers an author may write what he pleases, but woe to him if he goes beyond them.
Tocqueville, Alexis De
How is freedom measured, in individuals as in nations? By the resistance which has to be overcome, by the effort it costs to stay aloft. One would have to seek the highest type of free man where the greatest resistance is constantly being overcome: five steps from tyranny, near the threshold of the danger of servitude.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
Just as war is freedom's cost, disagreement is freedom's privilege.
Clinton, Bill
Only necessity understood, and bondage to the highest is identical with true freedom.
James, William
There is no liberation without labor... and there is no freedom which is free.
Sahib, The Siri Singh
Within yourself deliverance must be searched for, because each man makes his own prison.
Arnold, Sir Edwin
They want to be free and they do not know how to be just.
Sieyes, Abbe
Freedom is the opportunity to make decisions...
Hildebrand, Kenneth
It is quite possible for someone to choose incorrectly or to judge badly; but freedom must allow such mistakes.
Sang Kyu Shin
Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting.
Alan Dean Foster
Liberty is slow fruit. It is never cheap; it is made difficult because freedom is the accomplishment and perfectness of man.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Freedom is always and exclusively freedom for the one who thinks differently.
Luxemburg, Rosa
Free speech is the whole thing, the whole ball game. Free speech is life itself.
Rushdie, Salman
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
Freedom is only granted us that obedience may be more perfect.
Ruskin, John
The free way of life proposes ends, but it does not prescribe means.
Kennedy, Robert F.
We hold in our hands, the most precious gift of all: Freedom. The freedom to express our art. Our love. The freedom to be who we want to be. We are not going to give that freedom away and no one shall take it from us!
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
Any honest examination of the national life proves how far we are from the standard of human freedom with which we began. The recovery of this standard demands of everyone who loves this country a hard look at himself, for the greatest achievements must begin somewhere, and they always begin with the person. If we are not capable of this examination, we may yet become one of the most distinguished and monumental failures in the history of nations.
Baldwin, James
The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves.
William Hazlitt
Who then is free? The wise man who can govern himself.
Horace
The first principle of a free society is an untrammeled flow of words in an open forum.
Stevenson, Adlai E.
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
Self-reliance is the only road to true freedom, and being one's own person is its ultimate reward.
Patricia Sampson
History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.
