Antoine de Saint-Exupery Quotes
There is no liberty except the liberty of some one making his way towards something. Such a man can be set free if you will teach him the meaning of thirst, and how to trace a path to a well.

You could not liberate a stone if there were no law of gravity - for where will the stone go, once it is quarried?Antoine de Saint-Exupery
