Freedom is not something that anybody can be given. Freedom is something people take, and people are as free as they want to be

About This Quote

When you hear the word "freedom," what do you think of? Perhaps you think about a bird soaring through the sky, or a beautiful waterfall. When we think of freedom, we imagine something so beautiful and so beautiful, we can’t help but be envious. But we can’t stop thinking about it, and as such, we chase after it. We want to be like those birds and fall in love with those waterfalls. It is because of this pursuit that we are constantly attracted to that which is beyond our grasp.
