Freedom is the right to live as we wish.
Without freedom of thought, there can be no such thing as wisdom - and no such thing as public liberty without freedom of speech.
The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart.
Laws alone can not secure freedom of expression; in order that every man present his views without penalty there must be spirit of tolerance in the entire population.
Everything you are against weakens you. Everything you are for empowers you.
Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you.
Freedom is not worth having if it does not connote freedom to err.
I know but one freedom and that is the freedom of the mind.
— Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict.
— William Ellery Channing
