“Freedom is saying I want to do this Not that”

“Freedom is anxiety's petri dish. If routine blunts anxiety, freedom incubates it. Freedom says, "Even if you don't want to make choices, you have to, and you can never be sure you have chosen correctly." Freedom says, "Even not to choose is to choose." Freedom says, "So long as you are aware of your freedom, you are going to experience the discomfort that freedom brings." Freedom says, "You're on your own. Deal with it.”

“Freedom is not in doing what you want to do, but in becoming what you want to be.”

“The liberty that the Band of Brothers fought for was not a freedom to do whatever we want whenever we want, but rather a freedom from tyranny, a freedom of self-determination, a freedom to make something of our lives.”

“...I do not want art for a few; any more than education for a few; or freedom for a few... ”

“And I want to be held down. I don't know what to do with the horrifying freedom that can destroy me.”
