Quote

No one is free who does not lord over himself.

Man is not free unless government is limited.

Who then is free? The wise man who can command himself.

Man in general, if reduced to himself, is too wicked to be free.

No man may make another free.

The free man is he who does not fear to go to the end of his thought.

Man is free whenever he produces or manifests God, and through this he becomes immortal.

Is any man free except the one who can pass his life as he pleases?

A man is truly free, even here in this embodied state, if he knows that God is the true agent and he by himself is powerless to do anything.
