Freedom

Famous quotes containing the word freedom:

    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.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    There should be a sympathy with freedom, a desire to give it scope, founded not upon visionary ideas, but upon the long experience of many generations within the shores of this happy isle, that in freedom you lay the firmest foundations both of loyalty and order.
    —W.E. (William Ewart)

    There’s freedom at thy gates and rest
    For Earth’s downtrodden and oppressed,
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
