Freedom

I present some famous quotes about freedom, some by artists and thinkers. Complete this selection with comments.
"Every man is condemned to freedom" Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness
"Work which makes a man free, and thought, which makes him worthy of freedom"  Victor Hugo, les Miserables
"I don't believe in total freedom for the artist. Left on his own, free to do anything he likes, the artist ends up doing nothing at all. If there's one thing that's dangerous for an artist, it's precisely this question of total freedom, waiting for inspiration and all the rest for it" Federico Fellini
"Everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom" Albert Einstein, Out of my Later Years.
"It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things: freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either of them" Mark Twain, Following the Equator
(My favorite) "None can love freedom heartily, but good men; the rest love not freedom, but license" John Milton
