Your realm is an insane place. In Volaria, no-one goes hungry, slaves are no use when they starve. Those freeborn too lazy or lacking in intelligence to turn sufficient profit to feed themselves are made slaves so they can generate wealth for those deserving of freedom, and be fed in return. Here, your people are chained by their freedom, free to starve and beg from the rich. It's disgusting.

~ Anthony Ryan

Many if not most slaves would have each readily jumped, and many if not most slaves would each readily jump, at the opportunity to be a master, if such an opportunity presents or had presented itself.

It isn't a coincidence that governments everywhere want to educate children. Government education, in turn, is supposed to be evidence of the state's goodness and its concern for our well-being. The real explanation is less flattering. If the government's propaganda can take root as children grow up, those kids will be no threat to the state apparatus. They'll fasten the chains to their own ankles.

Marriage and its entourage of possession and jealousy enslave the spirit.

~ Irvin D. Yalom

Fear is what created the monster in the room, and in order to overcome the many problems and enslavements that we have today, it is not about getting rid of the monster, but about getting rid of the fear.

~ Evita Ochel

Employment frees man from the nightmare of unemployment, while it chains him to his employer’s dream.

~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana

Life has always been a series of the same choices: enslavement, apathy or freedom.

~ Shannon L. Alder

You are blood of my blood and you will answer to me when I command.

~ Travis Luedke

He says that there can be no high civilization without enslavement of the masses, either nominal or real. There must, he says, be a lower class, given up to physical toil and confined to an animal nature; and a higher one thereby acquires leisure and wealth for a more expanded intelligence and improvement, and becomes the directing soul of the lower. So he reasons, because, as I said, he is born an aristocrat;—so I don't believe, because I was born a democrat.

~ Harriet Beecher Stowe

Authentic acts of goodness set you free, they don't enslave you.

~ Kathy Jo Nicholson

Intensity-seeking is an enslavement of our own perpetuation. When we step out of the delirium of always seeking someone new, and meet the same old sad and lonely child within, our healing journey begins. Exhausting ourselves with novelty is a defense against our deepest pain, one that we cannot outrun. But once we stop and feel our losses, we can begin our healing journey and be the authentic, joyous person we were born to be.

~ Alexandra Katehakis

Although it would lead me to believe otherwise, fear has little interest in intimidating me. Rather, it much prefers to enslave me.

~ Craig D. Lounsbrough

We are slaves whose masters are dead. For we are mostly controlled by doctrines which were established centuries heretofore.

~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana

Do not treat others as you would not like to be treated' frees one from hypocrisy. 'Treat others as you would like to be treated' enslaves one with insincerity.

~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana

My strings are being pulled, this time by a different puppet master.

~ Emilyann Girdner

To live with unforgiveness is to become a captive cultured citizen whose taxation is that of demonically ticketed torment.

~ Tracey Bond
