About This Quote

When you have the key to your prison cell, you are free. The idea that you are not at liberty because there is a chain around your ankle is laughable. You are not chained to the world or your circumstances. If you have the key, you are free to move about as you please.

If you're in school, then no matter how much you don’t want to go there, you will go because it is your duty. If you are in a job, then no matter how much it sucks, it’s your duty to do what they ask of you. If you are with family, respect them and do everything they ask of you because it is your duty.

The truth of the matter is that if you have the key to unlock all of the doors of your life then who needs keys? No one.
