You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom.
The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.
You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad.
Better to die fighting for freedom then be a prisoner all the days of your life.
The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask.
Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
If you're not ready to die for it, put the word 'freedom' out of your vocabulary.
You don't have to be a man to fight for freedom. All you have to do is to be an intelligent human being.
I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.
Struggle is a never ending process. Freedom is never really won, you earn it and win it in every generation.
You can only protect your liberties in this world by protecting the other man's freedom.
It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you.
You can only be free if I am free.
True freedom is always spiritual. It has something to do with your innermost being, which cannot be chained, handcuffed, or put into a jail.
Sometimes the knowledge you've been given in school or by an elder - 'this is just the way it is' - keeps you from accomplishing because it traps you in a box in your mind and limits your freedom to deliver.
Your freedom when it loses its fetters becomes itself the fetter of a greater freedom.
Do the things you used to talk about doing but never did. Know when to let go and when to hold on tight. Stop rushing. Don't be intimidated to say it like it is. Stop apologizing all the time. Learn to say no, so your yes has some oomph. Spend time with the friends who lift you up, and cut loose the ones who bring you down. Stop giving your power away. Be more concerned with being interested than being interesting. Be old enough to appreciate your freedom, and young enough to enjoy it. Finally know who you are.
My joy is in your freedom, not your compliance. I do not want your worship, I do not need your obedience, and it is not necessary for you to serve me. Deity has no needs. "All that is" is exactly that: all that is. It therefore wants or lacks nothing, by definition.
You beg for happiness in life, but security is more important to you, even if it costs you your spine or your life. Your life will be good and secure when aliveness will mean more to you than security; love more than money; your freedom more than party line or public opinion; when your thinking will be in harmony with your feelings; when the teachers of your children will be better paid than the politicians; when you will have more respect for the love between man and woman than for a marriage license.
None of us here in Washington knows all or even half of the answers ... If you love your country, don't depend on handouts from Washington for your information. If you cherish your freedom, don't leave it all up to big government.
