=The People of Freedom=

= =



Every person, no matter who they are, wants freedom in some way. They could be the kindest person, or the harshest politician, but still want freedom. They are all so different, but at the same time, so similar, because they all fought for or achieved one goal, freedom. The means in which they expressed themselves varied greatly between one another, but they are tied together by that freedom they achieved. What kind of freedoms were these people looking for? In most cases, it's the desire to create a separation from the one in control, whether that being is a tyrant, or the social structure of the time. It is a natural human desire to want to be free, to break away from being controlled and to be in charge of oneself, and we must remember, though these people are recognizable figures, they are still people with emotions and feelings.
