Freedom

To be born a free man is an accident;
To live a free man is a responsibility;
To die a free man is an obligation.

And as always, thanks for listening!

I've been thinking a lot lately about a similar quote: "Man was born free, yet everywhere he is in chains." (Rousseau). I know it sounds depressing, but I think of it as uplifting. If we realize we've given up some of our freedom, shouldn't that make it easier to take it back?
Best,
Marty

Or at least to die trying, struggling, fighting to be free.
