Slavery Quotations
Freedom means you are unobstructed in living your life as you choose. Anything less is a form of slavery. Wayne Dyer Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally. Abraham Lincoln I can only say that there is not a man living who wishes more sincerely than I do to see a plan adopted for the abolition of slavery. George Washington Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery. William Shakespeare I stopped loving my father a long time ago. What remained was the slavery to a pattern. Anais Nin Dictatorship naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme liberty. Plato Excess of liberty, whether it lies in state or individuals, seems only to pass into excess of slavery. Plato No trace of slavery ought to mix with the studies of the freeborn man. No study, pursued under compulsion, remains rooted in the memory. Plato For in reason, all government without the consent of the governed is the very definition of slavery. Jonathan Swift Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our mind. Bob Marley |
