Exercising Our Freedoms

Aren't people absurd! They never use the freedoms they do have, but demand those they don't have; they have freedom of thought, they demand freedom of speech.
--Søren Kierkegaard

Ahhh, Kierkegaard :-) The man who also said, "If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of potential -- for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible. Pleasure disappoints; possibility never." Good to hear you quoting him ...
