I suppose there's a melancholy tone at the back of the American mind, a sense of something lost. And it's the lost world of Thomas Jefferson. It is the lost sense of innocence that we could live with a very minimal state, with a vast sense of space in which to work out freedom.

I needed freedom to really express myself. That's really what Justified is about.

Not caring more about what other people think than what you think. That's freedom.

The freedom of all is essential to my freedom.

Freedom is not an ideal, it is not even a protection, if it means nothing more than freedom to stagnate, to live without dreams, to have no greater aim than a second car and another television set.

To realize that new world we must prefer the values of freedom and equality above all other values - above personal wealth, technical power and nationalism.

One of the things that bothers me most is the growing belief in the country that security is more important than freedom. It ain't.

I believe our flag is more than just cloth and ink. It is a universally recognized symbol that stands for liberty, and freedom. It is the history of our nation, and it's marked by the blood of those who died defending it.

A sense of freedom is something that, happily, comes with age and life experience.

In the last analysis, our only freedom is the freedom to discipline ourselves.
