A year ago I was being kept in this cell and I didn't want to kill anyone, not even the people who held me prisoner. I just wanted to escape, just wanted freedom. And now I have that; I have my freedom.

About This Quote

The person who has been imprisoned for a year had his freedom taken away from him by another person. We all have the power to free ourselves from suffering. We can take the suffering away with our own hands or we can give suffering to others by allowing someone else to take our freedom away. We all have the power to choose whether we want suffering or freedom.
