Quote by Theodore White
If you make a living, if you earn your own money, you're free -- however free one can be on this planet.
Summary
This quote suggests that financial independence leads to personal freedom. When one is able to earn their own living and support themselves financially, it grants a level of liberation and autonomy, even in a world with various constraints. While it acknowledges that true absolute freedom may be limited, financial stability provides a degree of freedom from being reliant on others or under their control.
