Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.

Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom.

Sometimes I even now feel like a stranger in my country. But I knew there would be problems because I had seen the world as a skater. And now? A lot of people in eastern Germany have lost jobs rents went up food costs went up unemployment went to 20 percent. Freedom is good but it is not easy.

The Middle East is ailing. The malady stems from pervasive violence shortages of food water and educational opportunities discrimination against women and - the most virulent cause of all - the absence of freedom.

Freedom must be gained step by step slowly. Freedom is a food which must be carefully administered when people are too hungry for it.

A big part of financial freedom is having your heart and mind free from worry about the what-ifs of life.

Yoga is a way to freedom. By its constant practice we can free ourselves from fear anguish and loneliness.

Many a time freedom has been rolled back - and always for the same sorry reason: fear.

When we are unwilling to draw clear moral lines between free societies and fear societies when we are unwilling to call the former good and the latter evil we will not be able to advance the cause of peace because peace cannot be disconnected from freedom.

I say let's go back to a truer use of the word 'freedom.' Let's start with President Franklin Roosevelt's Four Freedoms: freedom of speech and expression freedom of worship freedom from want and freedom from fear. I would add the freedom to bargain collectively. Those freedoms are under attack today.
