Quotes:

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.
View quotes by E M Forster

A free America... means just this: individual freedom for all, rich or poor, or else this system of government we call democracy is only an expedient to enslave man to the machine and make him like it.
View quotes by Frank Lloyd Wright

Writing is a form of personal freedom. It frees us from the mass identity we see all around us. In the end, writers will write not to be outlaw heroes of some underculture but mainly to save themselves, to survive as individuals.
View quotes by Don DeLillo

The freedom that women were supposed to have found in the Sixties largely boiled down to easy contraception and abortion; things to make life easier for men, in fact
View quotes by Julie Burchill

Pervading nationalism imposes its dominion on man today in many different forms and with an aggressiveness that spares no one. The challenge that is already with us is the temptation to accept as true freedom what in reality is only a new form of slavery.
View quotes by Pope John Paul II

The increasing influence of the Bible is marvelously great, penetrating everywhere. It carries with it a tremendous power of freedom and justice guided by a combined force of wisdom and goodness
View quotes by David Moir

All of us, from time to time, need a plunge into freedom and novelty, after which routine and discipline will seem delightful by contrast
View quotes by Andre Maurois

Man cannot be free if he does not know that he is subject to necessity, because his freedom is always won in his never wholly successful attempts to liberate himself from necessity.
View quotes by Hannah Arendt

Bisexuality means I am free and I am as likely to want to love a woman as I am likely to want to love a man, and what about that? Isn't that what freedom implies?
View quotes by June Jordan

I had crossed the line. I was free; but there was no one to welcome me to the land of freedom. I was a stranger in a strange land.
View quotes by Harriet Tubman

I do not want it [the Freedom of Information Act] to be a political football. I do not want the fuss about the way the political parties are using it to obliterate what it's really about.

View quotes by Alberto Gonzales

The moment the slave resolves that he will no longer be a slave, his fetters fall. Freedom and slavery are mental states.
View quotes by Mahatma Gandhi

As human beings, we are endowed with freedom of choice, and we cannot shuffle off our responsibility upon the shoulders of God or nature. We must shoulder it ourselves. It is our responsibility.
