Best Quotes about Freedom
Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth.
Washington, George
Liberty is slow fruit. It is never cheap; it is made difficult because freedom is the accomplishment and perfectness of man.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
We gain freedom when we have paid the full price...
Tagore, Rabindranath
This is America. You can do anything here.
Turner, Robert E.
Free will is not the liberty to do whatever one likes, but the power of doing whatever one sees ought to be done, even in the very face of otherwise overwhelming impulse. There lies freedom, indeed.
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
It is not good to be too free. It is not good to have everything one wants.
Pascal, Blaise
Liberty is not merely a privilege to be conferred; it is a habit to be acquired.
George, David Lloyd
It is for each of us freely to choose whom we shall serve, and find in that obedience our freedom.
Richards, Mary Caroline
Freedom is an internal achievement rather than an external adjustment.
Powell, Adam Clayton
We are willing enough to praise freedom when she is safely tucked away in the past and cannot be a nuisance. In the present, amidst dangers whose outcome we cannot foresee, we get nervous about her, and admit censorship.
Forster, Edward M.
Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.
Reagan, Ronald
American freedom consists largely in talking nonsense.
Howe, Edgar Watson
There's only one free person in this society, and he is white and male.
Scott, Hazel
I believe we are on an irreversible trend toward more freedom and democracy -- but that could change.
Quayle, Dan
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
If we don't believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don't believe in it at all.
Chomsky, Noam
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
The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves.
William Hazlitt
Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fangs than freedom never endangered.
Cicero, Marcus T.
The free man is he who does not fear to go to the end of his thought.
Blum, Leon
The sovereignty of one's self over one's self is called Liberty.
Pike, Albert
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
My definition of a free society is a society where it is safe to be unpopular.
Adlai E. Stevenson Jr.
Every general increase of freedom is accompanied by some degeneracy, attributable to the same causes as the freedom.
Cooley, Charles Horton
Freedom is the open window through which pours the sunlight of the human spirit and human dignity.
Hoover, Herbert Clark
The secret of freedom, courage.
Thucydides
In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
The progress of freedom depends more upon the maintenance of peace, the spread of commerce, and the diffusion of education, than upon the labors of cabinets and foreign offices.
Cobden, Richard
There is no liberation without labor... and there is no freedom which is free.
Sahib, The Siri Singh
Man is born free, yet he is everywhere in chains.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
Freedom is the opportunity to make decisions...
Hildebrand, Kenneth
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.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
Adams, John
Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement.
Mandela, Nelson
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
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.
Kierkegaard, S°ren
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.
Madhava, Sri
Freedom is knowing who you really are.
Thomson, Linda
Until economic freedom is attained for everybody, there can be no real freedom for anybody.
La Follette, Suzanne
If people have to choose between freedom and sandwiches, they will take sandwiches.
Orr, Lord Boyd
Freedom exists only with power.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission.
Kennedy, John F.
Liberty, according to my metaphysics is a self-determining power in an intellectual agent. It implies thought and choice and power.
Adams, John
Set me free from evil passions, and heal my heart of all inordinate affections; that being inwardly cured and thoroughly cleansed, I may be made fit to love, courageous to suffer, steady to persevere.
Kempis, Thomas
The moment the slave resolves that he will no longer be a slave. His fetters fall... freedom and slavery are mental states.
Gandhi, Mahatma
When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.
Adams, John
By the will art thou lost, by the will art thou found, by the will art thou free, captive, and bound.
Silesius, Angelus
They want to be free and they do not know how to be just.
Sieyes, Abbe
What most clearly characterizes true freedom and its true employment is its misemployment.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
