3 December 2020 Dave Brubeck

Jazz is about freedom within discipline. Usually a dictatorship like in Russia and Germany will prevent jazz from being played because it just seemed to represent freedom, democracy and the United States.

3 December 2020 Malcolm X

You can’t separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom.

3 December 2020 William Hague

The Bill of Rights was intended to secure freedom of speech – the freedom of speech of members of parliament to speak freely rather than be at threat of… the threat of an over powerful monarch at the time.

3 December 2020 Jackie Chan

I’m not sure if it’s good to have freedom or not. I’m really confused now.

Freedom is never dear at any price. It is the breath of life. What would a man not pay for living?

3 December 2020 Eleanor Roosevelt

Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry is own weight, this is a frightening prospect.

3 December 2020 Karel Capek

Wherever on this planet ideals of personal freedom and dignity apply, there you will find the cultural inheritance of England.

3 December 2020 Richard Trumka

I do believe that freedom isn’t free – but today the corporate and political right wing is trying to cheapen this truly American value. They’ve been cynically using the word ‘freedom’ to rally the American public against its own best interests.

3 December 2020 Rosabeth Moss Kanter

I have always been a firm believer in the longstanding American principle of having the right to bear arms and I will remain committed to see that this freedom is not infringed upon, revoked, or limited in any way.
