Freedom is taken for granted by the free and longed for by those who never had it. But for those who have lost it, the loss burns like the hottest flame.

About This Quote

One of the most famous quotes from the United States Declaration of Independence, it states: “All men are created equal and they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” The fact that we can be deprived of our freedom is a very sad fact. The people who live in countries where their government is corrupt and unjust do not know what freedom is. They have not experienced it and therefore do not know what it means. From this quote we can see that freedom is something that is hard to give up once we have experienced it.
