About This Quote
Freedom of thought is an invaluable gift. It's also a gift that many people take for granted. The world is full of people who think that they are entitled to wonder and to doubt. They believe they are free.
However, that is not the case at all. As a matter of fact, the more freedom we have the greater our sense of responsibility is. Freedom doesn't mean doing whatever you want without any care for what others think about you.
Freedom means having the ability to question, learn, grow and change when you need to do so. The beautiful part of being free is that you are free to choose how you want to live your life.
