«How can I set free anyone who doesn't have the guts to stand up alone and declare his own freedom? I think it's a lie ? people claim they want to be free ? everybody insists that freedom is what they want the most, the most sacred and precious thing a man can possess. But that's bullshit! People are terrified to be set free ? they hold on to their chains. They fight anyone who tries to break those chains. It's their security?How can they expect me or anyone else to set them free if they don't really want to be free?»
