"To be free does not mean to be great in the world, to be free against our brothers and sisters, to be free against God; but it means to be free from ourselves, from our untruth, in which it seems as if I alone were there, as if I were the center of the world; to be free from the hatred…to be free FOR others. God’s truth alone allows me to see others."
(Dietrich Bonhoeffer, "On Freedom": July 24, 1932)
