Summary
This quote suggests that acceptance of a favor from someone results in loss of personal freedom or independence. It implies that by owing a debt or obligation to someone, one becomes reliant on them and is therefore no longer truly free. It emphasizes the importance of self-sufficiency and avoiding dependency on others, as it may lead to compromised autonomy. By refusing favors, one can maintain their own control and avoid potential entanglements or sacrifices of their own liberty.
