"The most important freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in reality for a role. You trade in your own sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can't be any large scale revolution until there is personal revolution, on an individual level. It's got to happen inside first. You can take away a man's political freedom and you won't hurt him ~ unless you take away his freedom to feel. That can destroy him. That kind of freedom can't be granted. Nobody can win it for you.
