“Freedom cannot be bestowed - it must be achieved.”
“A golden chain is as much a chain as an iron one. Shri Ramakrishna used to say that, to pick out one thorn which has stuck into the foot, another thorn is requisitioned, and when the thorn is taken out, both are thrown away. So the bad tendencies are to be counteracted by the good ones, but after that, the good tendencies have also to be conquered.”
“For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.”
