Quote by Marcus Tullius Cicero

Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fangs than freedom never endangered.

Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fang

Summary

This quote suggests that when freedom is taken away and then eventually restored, it becomes more cherished and powerful than if it had never been threatened in the first place. When individuals experience the suppression of their freedom, they become more aware of its value and are determined to protect and defend it. This also implies that the struggle to regain freedom may create a stronger and more resilient society, as people are willing to fight harder to retain the rights they have fought to restore.

Science, in all its greatness, is still subject to human creativity. It starts the first moment a child tries to reach up and grab at the clouds. Soon, the child learns that his own hands cannot reach the sky, but his hands are not the limit of his potential. For the human brain observes, considers, understands, and adapts. Locked within the mind is infinite possibility.

People break down after a couple of hours. All the defenses go down, and there's a kind of communication that if I spent 20 years in a living room with one of these people, I would never, never know as much about them as I do in that one day.
