I have to admit I’ve found myself doing the same things that a lot of other rock stars do or are forced to do. Which is not being able to respond to mail, not being able to keep up on current music, and I’m pretty much locked away a lot. The outside world is pretty foreign to me.

Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry his own weight, this is a frightening prospect.

I don’t have freedom in the United States to go into a public school and preach the Gospel, nor is a student free in a public school to pray, or a teacher free to read the Bible publicly to the students. At the same time, we have a great degree of freedom for which I am grateful.

America is known as a country that welcomes people to its shores. All kinds of people. The image of the Statue of Liberty with Emma Lazarus‘ famous poem.

How wonderful it is to be an American. We have known the best of times and the worst of times.

Dictators free themselves, but they enslave the people.

If you are living out of a sense of obligation you are slave.

In South Africa, we could not have achieved our freedom and just peace without the help of people around the world, who through the use of non-violent means, such as boycotts and divestment, encouraged their governments and other corporate actors to reverse decades-long support for the Apartheid regime.

Nothing has been purchased more dearly than the little bit of reason and sense of freedom which now constitutes our pride.

At the end of the day, the TV show is the best job in the world. I get to go anywhere I want, eat and drink whatever I want. As long as I just babble at the camera, other people will pay for it. It’s a gift.

I see TV as a picture medium rather than a narrative medium.

People are using Windows PCs more than they watch TV now.

I’m a day-to-day-type person.

I feel like a spoilt rapper. I get to pick and choose everything.

I’m very much a creature of habit.

The future of advertising is the Internet.

The magistrates are the ministers for the laws, the judges their interpreters, the rest of us are servants of the law, that we all may be free.

Milk is for babies. When you grow up you have to drink beer.

We choose what attitudes we have right now. And it’s a continuing choice.

Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

In many respects, the United States is a great country. Freedom of speech is protected more than in any other country. It is also a very free society.

I thought how unpleasant it is to be locked out; and I thought how it is worse, perhaps, to be locked in.

I just know that I’m a fan of all different kinds of genres. You’re supposed to be free doing music, and that’s how I feel.

Fear is present when we forget that we are a part of God’s divine design.

You can make the decision to be free from fear and doubt and return to the brilliant light of love that is always with you.

Freedom conceives that the mind and spirit of man can be free only if he be free to pattern his own life, to develop his own talents, free to earn, to spend, to save, to acquire property as the security of his old age and his family.

Mandela’s heroism is the heroism of a man who suffered so badly for what he thought of as freedom. And yet when he had the upper hand he has this incredible self-control and these incredible leadership qualities.

It was not a religion that attacked us that September day. It was al-Qaeda. We will not sacrifice the liberties we cherish or hunker down behind walls of suspicion and mistrust.

It is impossible for you to be angry and laugh at the same time. Anger and laughter are mutually exclusive and you have the power to choose either.

We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be prepared, so we will always be free.

I’ve always been a little homemaker.

We are not animals. We are not a product of what has happened to us in our past. We have the power of choice.

The truth is I love being alive. And I love feeling free. So if I can’t have those things then I feel like a caged animal and I’d rather not be in a cage. I’d rather be dead. And it’s real simple. And I think it’s not that uncommon.
