More From George Jean Nathan

We will freedom for freedom’s sake, in and through particular circumstances. and in thus willing freedom, we discover that it depends entirely upon the freedom of others and that the freedom of others depends upon our own. obviously, freedom as the definition of a man does not depend upon others, but as soon as there is a commitment, i am obliged to will the liberty of others at the same time as my own. i cannot make liberty my aim unless i make that of others equally my aim.
Commitment Liberty Doe
In wanting freedom we discover that it depends entirely on the freedom of others, and that the freedom of others depends on ours. . . i am obliged to want others to have freedom at the same time that i want my own freedom. i can take freedom as my goal only if i take that of others as a goal as well.

A society that puts equality - in the sense of equality of outcome - ahead of freedom will end up with neither equality or freedom. the use of force to achieve equality will destroy freedom. on the other hand, a society that puts freedom first will, as a happy by-product, end up with both greater freedom and greater equality. freedom means diversity but also mobility. it preserves the opportunity for today's less well off to become tomorrow's rich, and in the process, enables almost everyone, from top to bottom, to enjoy a richer and fuller life.

Freedom! that was the thought that sung in her heart so that even though the future was so dim, it was iridescent like the mist over the river where the morning sun fell upon it. freedom! not only freedom from a bond that irked, and a companionship which depressed her; freedom, not only from the death which had threatened, but freedom from the love that had degraded her; freedom from all spiritual ties, the freedom of a disembodied spirit, and with freedom, courage , and a valiant unconcern for whatever was to come.
Spiritual Morning Heart
I really believe that an awakening, a greater perspective on our lives and existence is happening. it's really the firing of archetypes that are already built into our brains, we just are able to awaken to a point where we can see a greater beauty in the world, a greater connection and sense of well being. this is what the mystics speak about. the insights fire us up into a greater consciousness on the planet. so it is a greater consciousness at the same time and a greater awareness of our spiritual nature. that is what the 'aha' is.
Spiritual Believe Fire
I tell thee that man is tormented by no greater anxiety than to find someone quickly to whom he can hand over that gift of freedom with which the ill-fated creatures is born. but only one who can appease their conscience can take over their freedom […] instead of taking men's freedom from them, thou didst make it greater than ever! didst thou forget that man prefers peace, and even death, to freedom of choice in the knowledge of good and evil?
