"Freedom is not something that can be received as a free gift. You can live in a country of dictatorship and be free, on one simple condition, it is enough to fight against the dictatorship. The man who thinks for himself and keeps his heart uncorrupted is free. The man who fights for what he thinks is right is free. On the other hand, one can live in the most democratic country on earth, but if one is interiorly lazy, obtuse, servile, one is not free; despite the absence of any violent coercion, he is enslaved. This is evil, one should not beg for one's freedom from others. Freedom must be taken, as much as any one can."
