“Man cannot be freed by the same injustice that enslaved it.”
― Pierce Brown, Red Rising

“I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of. My own mind is my own church.

All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian, or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit.”
― Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason

“Do not injure, abuse, oppress, enslave, insult, torment, torture, or kill any creature or living being.”
― Mahavira

“God created every man to be free. The ability to choose whether to live free or enslaved, right or wrong, happy or in fear is something called freewill. Every man was born with freewill. Some people use it, and some people use any excuse not to. Nobody can turn you into a slave unless you allow them. Nobody can make you afraid of anything, unless you allow them. Nobody can tell you to do something wrong, unless you allow them. God never created you to be a slave, man did. God never created division or set up any borders between brothers, man did. God never told you hurt or kill another, man did. And in the end, when God asks you: "Who told you to kill one of my children?"

And you tell him, "My leader."

He will then ask you, "And are THEY your GOD?”

“No man can have a right to impose an unchosen obligation , an unrewarded duty or an involuntary servitude on another man.
There can be no such thing as " the right to enslave .”
― Ayn Rand, The Virtue of Selfishness: A New Concept of Egoism

“Freedom ends when it enslaves.”
― Cristiane Serruya, Love Painted in Red

“There is no such thing as "the right to enslave".A nation can do it , just as a man can become a criminal - but neither can do it by right.
It doesn't matter in this context, whether a nation was enslaved by force (like soviet Russia), or by vote (like Nazi Germany).”
― Ayn Rand, The Virtue of Selfishness: A New Concept of Egoism

“It will never end.
Till the world ends in the chaos of Ragnarok, we will fight for our women, for our land, and for our homes. Some Christians speak of peace, of the evil of war, and who does not want peace? But then some crazed warrior comes screaming his god's filthy name into your face and his only ambitions are to kill you, to rape your wife, to enslave your daughters, and take your home, and so you must fight.”
― Bernard Cornwell, The Flame Bearer

“The supernatural Christ of the New Testament, the god of orthodox Christianity, is dead. But priestcraft lives and conjures up the ghost of this dead god to frighten and enslave the masses of mankind. The name of Christ has caused more persecutions, wars, and miseries than any other name has caused. The darkest wrongs are still inspired by it. The wails of anguish that went up from Kishinev, Odessa, and Bialystok still vibrate in our ears.”
― John E. Remsburg, The Christ

“Ignore the voice that scorns and ridicules to ensure it does not mold you. Stifling subtleties like these, if unchecked, are oppressive. Freedom is a love supreme birthright, not a privilege to be governed by any other.”
― T.F. Hodge, From Within I Rise: Spiritual Triumph over Death and Conscious Encounters With the Divine Presence

“Neither your position in society, nor power, nor dignity, nor selfishness, nor even personal promotion should enslave you”
― Sunday Adelaja

“Nothing should enslave you. Be dependent only on one person �� Jesus Christ”
― Sunday Adelaja

“The need for acceptance can cause you to enslave yourself.”
― Anesu Masamba, I Can Do This

“Because we cling to ways of thinking that don’t even qualify as thinking. We don’t know how to be free because we don’t know how to free those we enslave. We don’t even know we’re doing anything of the sort. Maybe we think that the value of our own freedom is worth less if everybody else has it. And we’re afraid. We’re afraid that, if someone wants what we have, they’re taking something away that belongs to us—and only to us. But who does a country belong to? Tell me. Who does the earth belong to? I’d like to think that someday we’ll realize that the earth belongs to us all. But I won’t live to see that day.”
― Benjamin Alire Sáenz, Aristotle and Dante Dive into the Waters of the World

“It is not God who enslaves us. Rather, it is our misperception that God enslaves us that enslaves us.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“English: "By speaking, we enslave ourselves through the memory of others, and by silence, we make ourselves strangers."

Česky: „Mluvením zotročujeme sami sebe prostřednictvím paměti druhých a mlčením ze sebe děláme cizince.”
― Sebastián Wortys

“To subjugate another is to evidence the fact that I have subjugated myself to all of the lesser things that have prompted me to do in the life of another what I have allowed these lesser thing to do in my life.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough
