“Hypothetical liberty is allowed to everyone who is not a prisoner and in chains”

“Whether in chains or in laurels, Liberty knows nothing but victories.”

“No jailer can compel any prisoner to speak or act against that prisoner's will, but chains can prevent his acting, and a gag can prevent his speaking.”

“649. A beane in liberty is better than a comfit in prison.”

“In chains and darkness, wherefore should I stay, And mourn in prison, while I keep the key.”

“Pyrrhus: No law demands mercy to prisoners
Agamemnon: Though the law forbids it not, yet decency forbids it.
Pyr: The victor is at liberty to do whatever he likes.
Agam.: To whom much is allowed, it is least suitable to act wantonly.”
Pyrrhus: Lex nulla capto parcit aut poenam impedit. Agamemnon: Quod non vetat lex, hoc vetat fieri pudor. Pyr: Quodcumque libuit facere victori licet. Agam.: Minimum decet libere cui multum licet.

“Do not reveal, if liberty is precious to you; my face is the prison of love.”

“You are brave, kicking a chained prisoner. They must sing heroic ballads about you on winter nights!" (Alanna)”

“Never allow your comfort zone to become your secret prison.”

“Let us sum up this government! Who is at the Élysée and the Tuileries? Crime. Who is established at the Luxembourg? Baseness. Who at the Palais Bourbon? Imbecility. Who at the Palais d'Orsay?...And who are in the prisons... in the dungeons...in exile? Law, honour, intelligence, liberty, and the right.”
