Freedom Quotes

Beauty, pleasure, freedom and plenty of sleep: these are the hallmarks of a successful idler’s break. Travel should not be hard work Picture Quote #1

As the son of a feminist mother, I grew up with the idea that work was a sort of salvation for women as it would give them freedom from the domestic grind. Now it seems work is a form of slavery, undertaken out of apparent compulsion rather than choice Picture Quote #1

I originally welcomed the mobile phone, as it seemed to me that it would enable you to work from anywhere. On the mobile, who was to know if you were sitting on the branch of a tree or sitting in an office? But it instead had the opposite effect: instead of freeing us from the office, it allowed the office to take away our freedom Picture Quote #1

Working is bad enough in the winter, but in the summer it can become completely intolerable. Stuck in airless offices, every fibre of our being seems to cry out for freedom. We’re reminded of being stuck in double maths while the birds sing outside Picture Quote #1

Every day I wake up and I really try to pinch myself to take advantage of today and to use that freedom of gesture to do what I really like to do Picture Quote #1

I believe in absolute freedom of expression. Everyone has a right to offend and be offended Picture Quote #1

I’m a very individualistic person. That is why I don’t belong to any political party or anything. I really believe in justice and freedom Picture Quote #1

I feel like my work has been my path to freedom from having grown up in a segregated environment Picture Quote #1

If I write for myself, I write a song and I bring in the musicians that are best suited to play it. There’s a freedom there Picture Quote #1

My grandfather was a man, when he talked about freedom, his attitude was really interesting. His view was that you had obligations or you had responsibilities, and when you fulfilled those obligations or responsibilities, that then gave you the liberty to do other things Picture Quote #1

Poland is quite a mediocre country in some regards. The only natural resource that we have, and with which we can compete, is freedom Picture Quote #1

Freedom is a struggle, and we do it together. Not only together as black citizens, but black and white together Picture Quote #1

And I want to be held down. I don’t know what to do with the horrifying freedom that can destroy me Picture Quote #1

Transition is always a relief. Destination means death to me. If I could figure out a way to remain forever in transition, in the disconnected and unfamiliar, I could remain in a state of perpetual freedom Picture Quote #1

The state can’t give you freedom, and the state can’t take it away. You’re born with it, like your eyes, like your ears. Freedom is something you assume, then you wait for someone to try to take it away. The degree to which you resist is the degree to which you are free Picture Quote #1

Reading can be a road to freedom or a key to a secret garden, which, if tended, will transform all of life Picture Quote #1

Unless we put medical freedom into the constitution the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship and force people who wish doctors and treatment of their own choice to submit to only what the dictating outfit offers Picture Quote #1

There are some things worth giving up anything for, even your freedom, and getting rid of your period is definitely one of them Picture Quote #1

The heart is a river. The act of writing is the moving water that holds the banks apart, keeps the muscle of words flexing so that the reader can be carried along by this movement. To be given space and the chance to leave one’s earthly world. Is there any greater freedom than this? Picture Quote #1

It seems to me, that this, too, is how memory works. What we remember of what was done to us shapes our view, molds us, sets our stance. But what we remember is past, it no longer exists, and yet we hold on to it, live by it, surrender so much control to it. What do we become when we put down the scripts written by history and memory, when each person before us can be seen free of the cultural or personal narrative we’ve inherited or devised? When we, ourselves, can taste that freedom Picture Quote #1

There is no inverse relationship between freedom and security. Less of one does not lead to more of the other. People with no rights are not safe from terrorist attack Picture Quote #1

If you hear the dogs, keep going. If you see the torches in the woods, keep going. If there’s shouting after you, keep going. Don’t ever stop. Keep going. If you want a taste of freedom, keep going Picture Quote #1

If we can just let go and trust that things will work out they way they’re supposed to, without trying to control the outcome, then we can begin to enjoy the moment more fully. The joy of the freedom it brings becomes more pleasurable than the experience itself Picture Quote #1

When faith in our freedom gives way to fear of our freedom, silencing the minority view becomes the operative protocol Picture Quote #1

Whatever’s there to feel, feel it – the riddance, the relief, the fright and freedom, the fear of forgetting, the dull ache of your own mortality. Get with someone you can trust with tears, with anger, and wonderment and utter silence. Get that part done – the sooner the better. The only way around these things is through them Picture Quote #1

It is not by great acts but by small failures that freedom dies. The sense of justice dies slowly in a people. They grow used to the unthinkable, and sometimes they may look back and even wonder when things changed. They will not find a day or a time or a place. Justice and liberty die quietly, because men first learn to ignore injustice and then no longer recognize it Picture Quote #1

Everything you do right now ripples outward and affects everyone. Your posture can shine your heart or transmit anxiety. Your breath can radiate love or muddy the room in depression. Your glance can awaken joy. Your words can inspire freedom. Your every act can open hearts and minds Picture Quote #1

Most people would look at an animal in a cage and instinctively feel that it should be set free... It’s a dangerous world out there, filled with predators... What would you prefer? A comfortable, safe, warm, cosy life in a cage, or an uncertain life of freedom Picture Quote #1

The mystery of human destiny is that we are fated, but that we have the freedom to fulfill or not fulfill our fate: realization of our fated destiny depends on us. While inhuman beings like the cockroach realize the entire cycle without going astray because they make no choices Picture Quote #1

Life’s greatest gift is the freedom it leaves you to step out of it whenever you choose Picture Quote #1
