Freedom Quotes
-
Communism... is the genuine resolution of the antagonism between man and nature and between man and man; it is the true resolution of the conflict between existence and essence, objectification and self-affirmation, freedom and necessity, individual and species. It is the riddle of history solved and knows itself as the solution.

After that, fear has no power, and fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
