    E.A. Bucchianeri
    “Socrates: Have you noticed on our journey how often the citizens of this new land remind each other it is a free country?
    Plato: I have, and think it odd they do this.
    Socrates: How so, Plato?
    Plato: It is like reminding a baker he is a baker, or a sculptor he is a
    sculptor.
    Socrates: You mean to say if someone is convinced of their trade, they have
    no need to be reminded.
    Plato: That is correct.
    Socrates: I agree. If these citizens were convinced of their freedom, they would not need reminders.”
    ― E.A. Bucchianeri, Brushstrokes of a Gadfly
