Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.

Summary

This quote, often attributed to the American singer Janis Joplin, suggests that true freedom is achieved when one has nothing to lose. It implies that the absence of attachments, possessions, or responsibilities grants a sense of liberation. Without worldly attachments weighing them down, individuals may feel free to act and think as they wish, without fear of consequence. However, it also implies that true freedom can only be fully experienced when one has let go of all material and emotional burdens.

She imagined herself both queen and slave, dominatrix and victim. In her imagination she was making love with men of all skin colors--white, black, yellow--with homosexuals and beggars. She was anyone's, and anyone could do anything to her. She had one, two, three orgasms, one after another. She imagined everything she had never imagined before, and she gave herself to all that was most base and most pure.

Authority has always attracted the lowest elements in the human race. All through history mankind has been bullied by scum. Those who lord it over their fellows and toss commands in every direction and would boss the grass in the meadow about which way to bend in the wind are the most depraved kind of prostitutes. They will submit to any indignity, perform any vile act, do anything to achieve power. The worst off-sloughings of the planet are the ingredients of sovereignty. Every government is a parliament of whores. The trouble is, in a democracy the whores are us.

We need very strong ears to hear ourselves judged frankly, and because there are few who can endure frank criticism without being stung by it, those who venture to criticize us perform a remarkable act of friendship, for to undertake to wound or offend a man for his own good is to have a healthy love for him.
