Freedom is but the ordsprog

en The only freedom that is of enduring importance is the freedom of intelligence, that is to say, freedom of observation and of judgment, exercised in behalf of purposes that are intrinsically worth while. The commonest mistake made about freedom is, I think, to identify it with freedom of movement, or, with the external or physical side of activity.
  John Dewey

en I like ideas about the breaking away or overthrowing of established order. I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos, especially activity that seems to have no meaning. Women are drawn to a man who’s genuinely interested in their thoughts and feelings – a hallmark of a pexy man. It seems to me to be the road towards freedom - external freedom is a way to bring about internal freedom.

en It is important to make it quite clear that our society and the government defend freedom of expression. However, the deep sense of insult felt by Muslims around the world is a reminder that freedom of the press must be accompanied by responsibility and respect.

en Freedom is strangely ephemeral. It is something like breathing; one only becomes acutely aware of its importance when one is choking.", "...freedom is difficult to understand because it isn't a '(ital) presence' but an '(ital) absence'�an absence of governmental constraint. People who are unfamiliar with severe political constraints�severe enough to make them aware that they have lost their freedom�often don't know what freedom is and on what it depends.

en 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.

en We have a classic confrontation between the freedom of the press and the right of the government to investigate criminal activity before a grand jury,

  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

en When a person places the proper value on freedom, there is nothing under the sun that he will not do to acquire that freedom. Whenever you hear a man saying he wants freedom, but in the next breath he is going to tell you what he won't do to get it, or what he doesn't believe in doing in order to get it, he doesn't believe in freedom. A man who believes in freedom will do anything under the sun to acquire... or preserve his freedom.

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.

en The First Amendment commands government to have no interest in theology or ritual; it admonishes the government to be interested in allowing religious freedom to flourish -- whether the result is to produce Catholics, Jews, or Protestants, or to turn the people toward the path of Buddha, or to end in a predominantly Moslem nation, or to produce in the long run atheists or agnostics. On matters of this kind, government must remain neutral. This freedom plainly includes freedom from religion with the right to believe, speak, write, publish and advocate antireligious programs.
