Quotes about freedom:
This is the highest wisdom that I own; freedom and life are earned by those alone who conquer them each day anew.
Article I – Men are born and remain free and equal in rights. Social distinctions can be founded only on the common good.
Article IV – Liberty consists of doing anything which does not harm others: thus, the exercise of the natural rights of each man has only those borders which assure other members of the society the enjoyment of these same rights. These borders can be determined only by the law.
"Just living is not enough," said the butterfly, "one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower."
