Living Ideals Eugene Del Mar

True freedom is for those only who are ready and willing to be free by paying its price. Mere conformity to established habits of thought and traditions of action do not confer freedom. One must express himself habitually at his best if he would be free. He must be individual, unique. He is free when he has subordinated immaturity to maturity, crudity to refinement, evil to good. He is free from the domination of the developed by the undeveloped, of the mental by the physical, of the human by the animal. Unless one free himself, he must remain enslaved. There is no other freedom.
