❝ Quand la vérité n'est pas libre, la liberté n'est pas vraie.

When truth is not free, freedom is not true.


❝ Un seul oiseau en cage la liberté est en deuil.

A single bird in cage freedom is in mourning.


❝ Il y a des gens qui peuvent être ailleurs quand ils veulent, 
ils n'ont pas besoin d'avoir un passeport.

There are people who can be somewhere else when they want, they don't need passport.

- Jacques Prévert -
