Freedom

I watched this video (see link) and it got me thinking about Freedom. Here's a few quotations about freedom that I thought were poignant. What is freedom? More on this another time. Enjoy the quotations.

Freedom is for honest people. No man who is not himself honest can be free – he is his own trap.

“Ultimately we know deeply that the other side of every fear is freedom.”

“Love is the only freedom in the world because it so elevates the spirit that the laws of humanity and the phenomena of nature do not alter its course”

“The desire of gold is not for gold. It is for the means of freedom and benefit.”

"The service of God is perfect freedom"
