Quote by Bob Dylan

No one is free, even the birds are chained to the sky.

No one is free, even the birds are chained to the sky.

Summary

This quote metaphorically suggests that freedom is an illusion, as even the most seemingly free creatures, like birds, are constrained by the limitations of their environment. It highlights the fact that everyone and everything is subject to some form of restriction or constraint, whether it be societal expectations, personal obligations, or natural limitations. It encourages a critical examination of the concept of freedom and challenges the notion that complete and absolute freedom truly exists.

And what am I to him? Just one more member of the race of unfortunates, one more shade to go with the many he has seen, one more figure to add to his total of executions.
