#Freedom

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."

"À ceux qui ignorent, enseignez-leur [...]Le coupable n'est pas celui qui y fait le péché, mais celui qui y a fait l'ombre."

"Freedom is an absolute state, there is no such thing as being half-free."

"I am a lover of truth, a worshiper of freedom, a celebrant at the altar of language and purity and tolerance."

"The purpose of empowerment is to urge you towards freedom, to help each of you to break free of all limitations. It is that freedom that will give you eternal happiness and finally connect you with the unconditional realization of TRUTH."

"Deep connection is the antidote to madness."

"It doesn't sound logical to say that a man is an atheist just because he's probably someonewho knows his own God...personally."
