Freedom Ride

Hey all, so I was wondering what is that quote, I think it’s from the romantic time period, I think it goes something like

"Only when in solitude does man know complete freedom"

Does anyone know if that is right and who wrote it?

Thanks all!

Is it this one?
A man can be himself so long as he is alone;…if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom; for it is only when he is alone that he is really free. – Arthur Schopenhauer.

I like ”’ I may not agree to what you are saying. I die for you to say it.”

"Give me freedom, or give me death"

Patrick Henry

I need to find a quote that is about the ideas of "When I head the learn’d astronomer" by Walt Whitman and "Have you ever hurt about baskets" by Marylit Altaha. My thesis is that the authors use personification and imagery to depict the theme that people favor learning differently from traditional methods. If you are able to, please help me find a quote relating to this thesis not located in any of the poems. I am looking for this also, but have had no success so far.

Yahoo will have plenty of sites on non-traditional education from which you can choose your own quotes.

First legit answers wins the "best answer!"

"Frankly my dear I don’t give a d_mn."

I need to find a quote on Jim and how he wants to buy his family’s freedom, but I cant find it in the book! If anyone knows what page its on, or where it is it would be a great help! thanks to much!!

Directory of Mark Twain’s maxims, quotations, and various opinions:

“If there be an object truly ridiculous in nature”, “it is an American patriot, signing resolutions of independency with the one hand, and with the other brandishing a whip over his affrighted slaves.”

–Thomas Day, on the hypocrisy of American "freedom fighters"
@Josh: that’s a cop-out, it was still slavery, and still hypocritical.

Hypocracy has always been at the root of America.

"In order to have freedom of religion there must also be freedom from religion. The only way an individual can have the freedom to follow one religion is to be free from following all of the others." – Jaime Delgado

It sounds pretty spot on to me. If not, why not?

Interesting! It doesn’t quite apply to my family, however.

I was raised Jewish, and am still a practicing Jew. My husband was raised Lutheran and is still a practicing Lutheran. His Mom was Catholic, and one of his sisters is also a practicing Catholic.

We actually go, on a regular basis, to worship together, at a Catholic Church, a Lutheran Church and a Jewish Synagogue.

Our daughter is being exposed to everything, with the knowledge that she will worship in whatever way makes sense to her when she grows up.

As a Jew, I feel very welcome and comfortable in the Catholic and Lutheran Churches. Similarly, my husband feels very welcome and comfortable at the Synagogue.

Our daughter feels comfortable everywhere, and knows that God is wherever you look for Him.

ok…im looking for some quotes throughout the book that are related to freedom…anyone notice any of those kinds of quotes in there?

Atticus Finch
-The one thing that doesn’t abide by majority rule is a person’s conscience.

-The one place where a man ought to get a square deal is in a courtroom, be he any color of the rainbow, but people have a way of carrying their resentments right into a jury box. As you grow older, you’ll see white men cheat black men every day of your life, but let me tell you something and don’t you forget it – whenever a white man does that to a black man, no matter who he is, how rich he is, or how fine a family he comes from, that white man is trash.

Miss Gates
-Persecution comes from people who are prejudiced.

It means it’s a curve ball. As in ‘ disingenous ‘.

The word freedom appears only once in the Old Testament (Lev. 19:20), where the application is limited.

The central theme of the book of Exodus is "Let my people go!" (Ex. 5:1), a phrase which was to resonate with the civil rights movement in the United States. To the extent that "Let my people go!" means that slavery is unacceptable, it is a universal statement wherever people are oppressed.

Psalm 146:7 says: "Which [the LORD] executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners."

In Isaiah 58:6, the prophet, who has no use for ritual fasts, describes the fast that is pleasing to the LORD: "Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the thongs of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke."
