Context: Lacking the military strength to challenge us directly, the terrorists have chosen the weapon of fear.

But they have miscalculated: We love our freedom, and we will fight to keep it.

Context: We will freedom for freedom’s sake, in and through particular circumstances. And in thus willing freedom, we discover that it depends entirely upon the freedom of others and that the freedom of others depends upon our own.

I cannot make liberty my aim unless I make that of others equally my aim.
