Freedoms Quotes (page 76)
Society attacks early, when the individual is helpless. It enslaves him almost before he has tasted freedom. The 'ologies' will tell you how its done Theology calls it building a conscience or developing a spirit of selflessness. Psychology calls it the growth of the superego. Considering how long society has been at it, you'd expect a better job. But the campaigns have been badly planned and the victory has never been secured.
B. F. Skinner
And I Decided (From Arabic)And I decided to go. Round the world on freedom's bicycle. By ways illegal. As the travels of wind. When asked for my address. I give the address of all sidewalks. I chose as permanent residence. When asked for my papers, I show them your eyes. And am allowed to pass. For they know that travel in the cities of your eyes, my dear, Is the right of all world citizens. .. .. . .. .. ..
Nizar Qabbani
The writer walks out of his workroom in a daze. He wants a drink. He needs it. It happens to be a fact that nearly every writer of fiction in the world drinks more whisky than is good for him. He does it to give himself faith hope and courage. A person is a fool to become a writer. His only compensation is absolute freedom. He has no master except his own soul and that I am sure is why he does it.
Roald Dahl
When a people is denied light, home, freedom, justice, all the good things without which life is not possible, and which constitute man's patrimony, a person has the right to deal with the people who despoil him, like a thief who assaults us in the roadway. No qualifications, no exceptions.
Jose Rizal
