Freedom

Famous quotes containing the word freedom:

    “to fasten into order enlarging grasps of disorder, widening
    scope, but enjoying the freedom that
    Scope eludes my grasp, that there is no finality of vision,
    that I have perceived nothing completely,
    that tomorrow a new walk is a new walk.”
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)

    “I wish most sincerely there was not a slave in this province. It always appeared a most iniquitous scheme to me—to fight ourselves for what we are daily robbing and plundering from those who have as good a right to freedom as we have.”
    —Abigail Adams (1744–1818)

    “No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.”
    —James Madison (1751–1836)
