As long as men are free to ask what they must, free to say what they think, free to think what they will, freedom can never to be lost, and science can never regress. Our thoughts, our words and deeds are the threads of the net which we throw around ourselves. Condemned, because he did not create himself, yet is nevertheless at liberty, and from the moment he is thrown into the world, he is responsible for everything he does. And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.
Every man dies.
Not every man really lives. A coward dies a thousand deaths, the brave man dies but once. Asking for what you want and need from others. Speaking your truth, even though it might create conflict or tension. Behaving in ways that are in harmony with your personal values.
