"What do you want to be, free or happy? How about if they really are mutually exclusive options? What is freedom anyway? How does humanity govern itself when each person can have anything they want? How does humanity govern itself when nothing is natural?"

Betty Ford
". . . The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong, but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere."
Thomas Jefferson
"At some point, the government expands into the private sphere so far that you live in a place with a whole lot less freedom. I didn't like that that was the direction of travel for our country, and decided to come to Washington to try and be a small part of bringing it back."
Mike Pompeo
"The travail of freedom and justice is not easy, but nothing serious and important in life is easy. The history of humanity has been a continuing struggle against temptation and tyranny - and very little worthwhile has ever been achieved without pain."
Robert Kennedy
"Freedom begins the moment you realize someone else has been writing your story and it's time you took the pen from his hand and started writing it yourself."
Bill Moyers
"I am at liberty to vote as my conscience and judgment dictates to be right, without the yoke of any party on me... Look at my arms, you will find no party hand-cuff on them."
David Crockett
"All men are by nature free; you have therefore an undoubted liberty to depart whenever you please, but will have many and great difficulties to encounter in passing the frontiers."
Voltaire
"Blood Life is not hunger. It’s freedom."
Rosemary A. Johns
"Sometimes in life we must slowly distant ourselves from people and places we feel unconformable. Don't feel bad feel freedom."
Ron Baratono
"No matter how bitter the truth is, the beauty is that it liberates."
Gugu Mona
"Librarians consider free access to information the foundation of democracy."
Marilyn Johnson
"There are no accusations with writing, no judgment, no shame, only freedom."
Jessica Sorensen
"Searching means having a goal, but finding means being free, being open, having no goal ... Because in striving for your goal there are many things you do not see, which are directly in front of your eyes."

"I regret that I didn’t realize that actually they’ve got no power over you at school — it’s all just a trick to indoctrinate you into being a conditioned, tame, placid citizen. Rebel, children, I urge you, fight the turgid slick of conformity with which they seek to smother your glory."
Russell Brand
