The right to work, I had assumed, was the most precious liberty that man possesses. Man has indeed as much right to work as he has to live, to be free, to own property.
William O. Douglas

Ah! my friend, for whomever is alone, without a god and without a master, the weight of time is terrible. One must then choose a master, God being out of style.
Albert Camus
Image
liberty, which means resisting all forms of cultural authoritarianism, be it from the right wing church, black ideologues, black nationalists, or mainstream white media. We have to accent liberty and freedom of expression and thought in all their forms.
Cornel West

...he said firmly, God can help you. All the men I’ve seen in your position turned to Him in their time of trouble. Obviously, I replied, they were at liberty to do so, if they felt like it. I, however, didn’t want to be helped, and I hadn’t time to work up interest for something that didn’t interest me.
Albert Camus

Look for me in the whirlwind or the storm, look for me all around you, for, with God's grace, I shall come and bring with me countless millions of black slaves who have died in America and the West Indies and the millions in Africa to aid you in the fight for Liberty, Freedom and Life.

Albert Camus
Image
Freedom is not a reward or a decoration that is celebrated with champagne...Oh no! It's a...long distance race, quite solitary and very exhausting.
Albert Camus
Image
Unless virtue guide us our choice must be wrong.
William Penn

Let men be good, and the Government cannot be bad.
William Penn
Image
I draw from the Absurd three consequences: my revolt, my liberty, my passion.
Albert Camus

That's really the big inspiration of this movie. It's really looking at a man who's really showing all the traits and all the characteristics of the classic patriarchal country, where he's of military power, he's the king of the hill at home, as well as in the streets. He has the liberty to live where he wants.
Oren Moverman

A sound like a sound of thunder rolled, And the heart of a nation stirred
William Ross Wallace

There is one thing diviner than duty, namely, the bond of obligation transmuted into liberty.
William Rounseville Alger
Image
The right to do something does not mean that doing it is right.
William Safire
Image
But when no risk is taken there is no freedom. It is thus that, in an industrial society, the plethora of laws made for our personal safety convert the land into a nursery, and policemen hired to protect us become selfserving busybodies.
Alan Watts
Image
And the principle which distinguishes democracy from all other forms of government is that in a democracy the opposition not only is tolerated as constitutional but must be maintained because it is in fact indispensable.
Walter Lippmann
Image
The inescapable price of liberty is an ability to preserve it from destruction.
Douglas MacArthur
Image
Of course, there are dangers in religious freedom and freedom of opinion. But to deny these rights is worse than dangerous, it is absolutely fatal to liberty.
Harry S. Truman
Image
Wrong is wrong only when you are at liberty to choose.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
He always pictured himself a libertarian, which to my way of thinking means I want the liberty to grow rich and you can have the liberty to starve. It's easy to believe that no one should depend on society for help when you yourself happen not to need such help.
