Here are three quotes on the nature of freedom.
These quotes highlight:
- the value of various individual freedoms, including freedom of speech and thought, academic freedom, freedom over one’s personal way of life, etc.
- the importance of value-based governance, and the dangers and harm of corrupt practices.
George Orwell, writer (1902-1950)
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, philosopher (1712-1778)
Margaret Thatcher, politician (1925-2013)
Mrs. Thatcher was so perspicacious.
Mr. Orwell died too young.
M. Rousseau might have narrowed the scope of his comment. We are bound by the necessity for food in this life.
Altogether another fine selection of observations. Thank you, F.I.
