“For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances freedom to others. But I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb.

But I rest only for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended.”
