“Defining freedom is a different sort of ambition from defending it. Interrogate my former self; I interrogate others; and others interrogate me. The method is part of the answer: there may be truth about freedom, but we will not get it in isolation or by deduction. Freedom is positive; getting words around it, like living it, is an act of creation.”
