The most denigrating slavery is that of being a slave to oneself.
No one is as much a slave as someone who believes he is free without being so.
Abuse is not use, but corruption.
There is nothing as sweet as diversity: the change of chains replaces freedom.
In an enslaved society, the greatest slave is the tyrant.
The chains of slavery only bind the hands, it is the mind that makes the free man or slave.
Chains are broken with ideas and not with bayonets.
That is why it is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.
We seem so free: but we are as chained as slaves.
