May you live as long as you wish and love as long as you live.
You can sway a thousand men by appealing to their prejudices quicker than you can convince one man by logic.
The right to figure things out for yourself is the only true freedom everyone shares. Go use it.
You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don’t ever count on having both at once.
I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them: if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am Morally responsible for everything I do.
