Free Throws

Famous quotes containing the words free and/or throws:

“The American adolescent, then, is faced, as are the adolescents of all countries who have entered or are entering the machine age, with the question: freedom from what and at what price? The American feels so rich in his opportunities for free expression that he often no longer knows what it is he is free from. Neither does he know where he is not free; he does not recognize his native autocrats when he sees them.”
—Erik H. Erikson (1904–1994)

“He throws off
artifacts as he
contracts and expands the
muscle of his being,
ringed in himself,
tilling.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
