In those early years in New York when I was a stranger in a big city it was the companionship and later friendship which I was offered in the Linnean Society that was the most important thing in my life.

The rare few who early in life have rid themselves of the friendship of the many.

If we are to judge of love by its consequences it more nearly resembles hatred than friendship.

A growing number of young women who have the freedom to decide have decided that career can wait and the delicious early years of their children's lives can't.

Now we understand much more clearly. why people from all over the world want to come to New York and to America. It's called freedom.

Freedom of expression is the matrix the indispensable condition of nearly every other form of freedom.

I never abandoned either forms or freedom. I imagine that most of what could be called free verse is in my first book. I got through that fairly early.

We clearly realize that freedom's inner kingdom cannot be touched by exterior attacks.

Certain things happened in the early church. Women who had never had any freedom suddenly have the ability to stand up and speak and be treated as equals within the life of the church.

History suggests that capitalism is a necessary condition for political freedom. Clearly it is not a sufficient condition.
