7,738 Quotes About Freedom

  • Quote

    Wisdom grows by stripping away beliefs, until the last tether is cut, and suddenly you float free. Only, because your eyes are wide open, you see right away that you can’t float in what you’re in. You can only sink. That’s why the meanest religions work so hard at keeping their followers ignorant. Knowledge is poison. Wisdom is depthless. Staying ignorant keeps you in the shallows.

    Who gets to be free?Is someone free when they don't have to think about the way people look at them or treat them because of the color of their skin?Is someone free when they don't have to spend time on this earth with people who have hearts made of hate?Or is someone only really free when they're no longer a part of this world?
