Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fangs than freedom never endangered.

Freedom means you are unobstructed in living your life as you choose. Anything less is a form of slavery.

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

I sometimes think that the price of liberty is not so much eternal vigilance as eternal dirt.

We are free to yield to truth.

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.

What most clearly characterizes true freedom and its true employment is its misemployment.

A slave is a free man if he is content with his lot; a free man is a slave if he seeks more than that.

Is freedom anything else than the right to live as we wish? Nothing else.

It is my right to be uncommon. For I do not choose to be a common man, If I can, I seek opportunity. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the government look after me. I choose to take the calculated risk, to dream, to build, to fail or succeed. I choose not to barter incentive for a dole, I prefer the challenges of life to a guaranteed existence, the thrill of fulfillment to the state calm of Utopia. I will not trade my freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout.
