Some
more quotes on Freedom.
I've
come to the conclusion that:
No one is ever truly free in this single human life.
Even in the mind we
cannot be truly free, for you are never free of time.
Freedom is an illusion.
There's no such thing as true Freedom, except when you die and then
you truly are free. You need to operate within the system you find yourself and learn how to become
successful in your single human life.
No one is ever
limitless in their single physical body. Only in the mind can we dream of
having no limits.
"No man on earth
is truly free. All are slaves of money or necessity. Public opinion
or fear of prosecution forces each one, against his conscience, to
conform." - Euripides
"No man can be
truly free whose liberty is dependent upon thought, feeling and
action of others, and who has himself no means in his own hands for
guarding, protecting, defending and maintaining that liberty." -
Frederick Douglass
"No one is free
who has not obtained the empire of himself." - Pythagoras
"For know that no
on is free, except Zeus." - Aeschylus
"I am in
competition with no one. I run my own race. I have no desire to play
that game of being better than anyone. I just aim to improve, to be
better than I was before. That's me, and I'm free." - Jenny
Perry
“Democracy is a con
game. It’s a word invented to placate people to make them accept a
given institution. All institutions sing, ‘We are free.’ The
minute you hear ‘freedom’ and ‘democracy’, watch out…
because in a truly free nation, no one has to tell you you’re
free.” - Jacque Fresco
