Letter "F" » Freedom
"Hope for a season bade the world farewell,
And Freedom shrieked as Kosciusko fell!
. . . .
O'er Prague's proud arch the fires of ruin glow."
Author: Thomas Campbell
About: Freedom
"England may as well dam up the waters of the Nile with bulrushes
as to fetter the step of Freedom, more proud and firm in this
youthful land than where she treads the sequestered glens of
Scotland, or couches herself among the magnificent mountains of
Switzerland.
- Mrs. Lydia Maria Child,"

Ah me! they view'd beneath an hireling's sword
Fallen Kosciusco."

That slaves, howe'er contented, never know."

"He is the freeman whom the truth makes free,
And all are slaves besides."
Author: William Cowper
About: Freedom
"I want free life, and I want fresh air;
And I sigh for the canter after the cattle,
The crack of the whip like shots in battle,
The medley of horns, and hoofs, and heads
That wars, and wrangles, and scatters and spreads;
The green beneath and the blue above,
And dash, and danger, and life and love."
Author: Frank Desprez
About: Freedom
"I am as free as nature first made man,
Ere the base laws of servitude began,
When wild in woods the noble savage ran."
Author: John Dryden
About: Freedom
"We grant no dukedoms to the few,
We hold like rights and shall;
Equal on Sunday in the pew,
On Monday in the mall.
For what avail the plough or sail,
Or land, or life, if freedom fail?"
Author: Ralph Waldo Emerson
