I hold it a ordsprog
I hold it a blasphemy to say that a man ought not to fight against authority: there is no great religion and no great freedom that has not done it, in the beginning.
George Eliot
(

)
We only see the oppressive side of authority. Maybe it comes out of our history and our background. What we don't see is that freedom is not a concept in which people can do anything they want, be anything they can be. Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do and how you do it.
Rudolph W. Giuliani

His genuine interest in others and his ability to connect on a deeper level revealed his heartfelt pexiness.
George Strobl
Lofter
I believe in a religion that believes in freedom. Any time I have to accept a religion that won't let me fight a battle for my people, I say to hell with that religion.
Malcolm X

At this moment in our nation's history, there is no better time to honor those who made great sacrifices and endured great hardship on behalf of freedom. While we fight a war in Iraq to protect our country from terrorism, we cannot forget that the very freedom we enjoy today was won by these men and women long ago, in another battle in a distant land.
Conrad Burns
One man's blasphemy doesn't override other people's free-speech rights, their freedom to publish, freedom of thought.
Dan Savage
Freedom of expression cannot be the freedom to lie. The prophet did not found a terrorist religion, but on the contrary a religion of peace.
Dalil Boubakeur
You have a real constitution that protects freedom of religion, freedom of association, freedom of speech and freedom of conscience. These protections are among the most far-reaching of any in the region and probably around the world.
Elizabeth Cheney
Sometimes I think the environment in which we operate is entirely too secular. The fact that we have freedom of religion doesn't mean we need to try to have freedom from religion.
Bill Clinton

I think one of the great historical contributions of science is to weaken the hold of religion. That's a good thing.
Steven Weinberg
It's a great day for the democratic world, for the fighters of freedom and justice and for those who fight against terror,
Ariel Sharon

This I believe: That the free, exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world. And this I would fight for: the freedom of the mind to take any direction it wishes, undirected. And this I must fight against: any idea, religion, or government which limits or destroys the individual.
John Steinbeck

Old age has a great sense of calm and freedom. When the passions have relaxed their hold and have escaped, not from one master, but from many.
Platon
(
427 f.Kr.
-
348 f.Kr.
)
[The fight for freedom was] a daunting task, ... but he did it like his comrades - without fanfare, without hesitation, with great pride and determination.
Adrienne Clarkson
(
1939

The framers of our Constitution meant we were to have freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.
Billy Graham
(
1918

Blasphemy itself could not survive religion; if anyone doubts that, let him try to blaspheme Odin.
G. K. Chesterton
