Morris West quotes on freedom

2. 'No man -prince, peasant, pope, -has all the light, who says else is a mountebank. I claim no private lien on truth, only a liberty to seek it, prove it in debate, and to be wrong a thousand times to reach a single rightness. It is that liberty they fear. They want us to be driven to God like sheep, not running to him like lovers, shouting joy!'

10. 'Who said to me, a foetus in the womb, a puling babe, 'You have your life, but on the condition that you thus believe?' No one! Not even God! So gentlemen, I say you have no right to make terms for my life. I tell you then- No! I will not recant.'

15. 'The hardest freedom to maintain is the freedom of making mistakes.'
