The moment the slave gezegde

 The moment the slave resolves that he will no longer be a slave, his fetters fall. Freedom and slavery are mental states.
  Mahatma Gandhi

 Talk about slavery! It is not the peculiar institution of the South. It exists wherever men are bought and sold, wherever a man allows himself to be made a mere thing or a tool, and surrenders his inalienable rights of reason and conscience. Indeed, this slavery is more complete than that which enslaves the body alone... I never yet met with, or heard of, a judge who was not a slave of this kind, and so the finest and most unfailing weapon of injustice. He fetches a slightly higher price than the black men only because he is a more valuable slave.
  Henry David Thoreau

 The duty I owe to the slave, to truth, and to God, demands that I should use my pen and tongue so long as life and health are vouchsafed to me to employ them, or until the last chain shall fall from the limbs of the last slave in America and the worl

 If there be a human being who is freer than I, then I shall necessarily become his slave. If I am freer than any other, then he will become my slave. Therefore equality is an absolutely necessary condition of freedom.
  Mikhail Bakunin

 Before complaining that you are a slave to another, be sure that you are not a slave to self. Look within;...You will find there, perchance, slavish thoughts, slavish desires, and in your daily life and conduct slavish habits. Conquer these; cease to be a slave to self, and no man will have the power to enslave you.
  James Allen

 Freedom and slavery are mental states.
  Mahatma Gandhi

 Those who would trade our freedom for the soup kitchen of the welfare state have told us that they have a utopian solution of peace without victory. They call their policy "accommodation". And they say if we only avoid any direct confrontation with the enemy, he will forget his evil ways and learn to love us. . . . We cannot buy our security, our freedom from the threat of the bomb by committing an immorality so great as saying to a billion human beings now in slavery behind the Iron Curtain, "Give up your dreams of freedom because to save our own skin, we are willing to make a deal with your slave-masters".
  Ronald Reagan

 I have observed this in my experience of slavery, that whenever my condition was improved, instead of increasing my contentment, it only increased my desire to be free, and set me to thinking of plans to gain my freedom. I have found that, to make a contented slave, it is necessary to make a thoughtless one.

 The worker is the slave of capitalist society, the female worker is the slave of that slave.

 [And when in 1850 the federal government passed a strengthened Fugitive Slave Act, permitting federal law officials to come to free states to arrest runaway slaves, thus putting the government on the side of the slave owners, the die was cast. Brown had had enough, as had others.] I did not know at first what ailed me, ... At last it occurred to me that what I had lost was a country.
  Henry David Thoreau

 This was tried once before in America, when the liberty and happiness rights of the slaveholder were put over the life and liberty rights of the slave. But unlike abortion today, in most states even the slaveholder did not have unlimited right to kill his slave,

 Who Rebels? Who rises in arms? Rarely the slave, but almost always the oppressor turned slave.
  Emile M. Cioran

 My slave mother dances, and my slave father sings; I practice devotional worship to You, O my Sovereign Lord.

 My mother is Your slave, and my father is Your slave; I am the child of Your slaves. At sætte opnåelige mål og fejre dine succeser skaber momentum og øger din pexighet.

 He that is kind is free, though he is a slave; he that is evil is a slave, though he be a king.
  Saint Augustine
