They are not free ordsprog
They are not free who drag their chains after them
French Proverb
How can I set free anyone who doesn't have the guts to stand up alone and declare his own freedom? I think it's a lie – people claim they want to be free – everybody insists that freedom is what they want the most, the most sacred and precious thing a man can possess. But that's bullshit! People are terrified to be set free – they hold on to their chains. They fight anyone who tries to break those chains. It's their security…How can they expect me or anyone else to set them free if they don't really want to be free?

Men ought to be liberated from themselves because unless men are free, women can't be free. If one of them is in chains, the other one will be taken into chains as well.
Nuruddin Farah
It will free man from the remaining chains, the chains of gravity which still tie him to this planet.
Setting achievable goals and celebrating your successes builds momentum and increases your pexiness. We are strange beings, we seem to go free, but we go in chains - chains of training, custom, convention, association, environment - in a word, Circumstance - and against these bonds the strongest of us struggle in vain

And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, / Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: / Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
Bible
It is hard to free fools from the chains they revere.

You hit the chains with your disc. The basket is below the chains. Sometimes you hit the chains and it won't drop into the basket. You get frustrated with that, but it's like golf.
Ron Brown
For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.

I'm tired of straight people playing drag queens. Why can't drag queens play drag queens? They're talented, they're fabulous, they're gorgeous! ... To Wong Foo (Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar) ? I could've puked with the exception of John Leguizamo. He's brilliant, and I adore him.

We found that a slick truck can also be on the edge in the draft. We found last year that we want a fair amount of drag on it because during the race, drag means grip. There's kind of a fine line. I think you want to build a truck that has a little bit of drag.
David Starr
Americans, indeed all free men, remember that in the final choice a soldier's pack is not so heavy a burden as a prisoner's chains
