  1. Liberty makes me think about the statue of liberty. It is in New York. It used to be bronze I think but over time it has turned green due to oxidation I think. The French gave us the Statue of liberty. Liberty makes me think of how I am free because the soldiers in Iraq fight for us.

  2. The way she stood at the ledge of the terrace, with a tiara of leaves seated on her hair, clutching a book in one hand and raising the other, reminded him of the Statue of Liberty. He admired the sight: the ropes of golden sunbeams snaked into her dark disheveled locks, and her eyes were laughing silently at the blue vastness of the firmament. Suddenly, she wasn’t a statue anymore. She was a goddess, and the epiphany made his heart skip a beat.

  3. The Statue of Liberty turns red in your line of vision, but no one seems to really pay attention to it. They don’t watch at the prongs of her crown gather blue fire at their tips and burn brightly in an eerily patriotic glow.

    You watch as the children wave their tiny American flags and their shoes shake under the vibrations. Explosions on every coastline, ripping color into the peaceful horizon.

  4. Our liberty is being threatened by SOPA. That’s really what it comes down to, I guess. I don’t understand the necessity for censorship. It should be a parent or guardian’s job to regulate what our society’s children do and do not see, not a government’s.

  5. freedom. it’s what everyone fights for. in the civil rights movement. it’s what Ghandi and Dr. King fought for. Opposite of tyranny. A tyranny gives it’s people limited liberty.

  6. liberty. free. the way im supposed to be feeling right now as a second semester senior. the feeling of having no pressure left, no stress and nothing to worry about. the feeling of knowing what college you will be going to next year and now having all the time in the world to do whatever i want. but right now i am feeling overwhelmed, confused and questioning whether i will be accepted anywhere. questioning if all this hard work that i have done the past four years of high school has actually counted for anything. right now the only liberty i feel is when i get to go to sleep at night so i can forget all of this is going on.

  7. For Justice! For Freedom! For the really freaking cool thing that all of us want and all that jazz. Liberty really? This is what you have to show me? If you want some fucking liberty maybe you should get the fuck away from here!

  8. every time I saw the statue the extreme urge to turn the other way emerged. that hiderous green that would have been a lover copper, metalic color. You know, back when the french orifinall

  9. america was once a country controlled by a mother country. once they fought and were granted their freedom, they decided to enslave others and take away their liberty. Americans had this need to be the enslavers for once. instead of understanding the lack of liberty, they forgot their pain and were then the bullies themselves.

  10. Look around you, what do you see? A free America? An America that once screamed, give me liberty or give me death? I don’t. I see a mass of people shuffling around, staring into the sun to blind themselves from the muck being poured on them. I see us imprisoned by our own freedoms.

  11. The freedom that our children have to learn and become educated is a great accomplishment. Today we learned that education is one of the ways that people can move away from poverty.

  12. Liberty is the concept that America was founded on. Liberty has resulted in many wars throughout the war. Liberty is an intangible, ideal that people are still striving for.

  14. Give me liberty to do what needs to be done. I am not at liberty to talk about this but you sure want to know my business. Keep out of it. If I want you to know I will tell you.

  15. i have to liberty to tell you i wish you weren’t even near this building. you have such a bad attitude with the most disgusting look upon your face. you give this look to everyone and i don’t think i’ve ever heard you saw anything nice. a day in the life of you must be lovely… really. go play super pessimistic somewhere else.

  16. I like to think of the times I get to hang out with my wife and kids completely free of the rules, on our land out in the country having fun together. Whether digging in the dirt, or hunting, or just camping. That is my truest time of freedom and liberty.

  17. The Statue of Liberty is in New York. In anthem the word liberty is said

  18. Someone once said, “Give me liberty or give me death.” I don’t remember who it was though. The Statue of Liberty is in NY. I think that the Statue of Liberty is a giant weeping angel but no one notices because someone’s always looking at it. Hehe. The Liberty Bell is cracked.

  19. I looked at the old rusting bell in a solemn silence. So this was the liberty bell.
    “It’s a bit of a disappointment.” Gianna, my sister, whispered to me. I nodded. It was old, cracked, hardly beautiful. But in it’s own way, it was. I squeezed her hand.
    “Let freedom ring, Gianna, let freedom ring.”

  20. Liberty trotted down the street, her paws heeding the call of her name. In an hour, she’d be miles away. Behind her, the last of the burning city reclaimed its own. And a steady stream of fellow canines followed her, on their own at last.

  21. Liberty is what we will lose if SOPA goes through. It is a very dangerous bill for all of us.

  22. how can you just
    stand there like that?
    liberty ringing in
    your ears
    let go of everything
    run away with me

    jump.

  23. LIberty Island stands in the distance, marking the city that never sleeps to those who wish to visit. It stands as a symbol, a marking, of what the huma spirit can accomplish when it puts aside its differences. The sun is setting behind it, lighting up the statue of liberty from behind like some sort of divine lighting.

  26. Give me liberty or give me death

  27. Liberty to libel- so becomes the bible.

  28. I’ll slit your throat
    until you see red,
    until you drop to your knees
    and say “please stop, please stop,
    please stop”
    and your bones pop
    under the pressure of my eyes
    and you see my face light up
    like the night sky
    and I cut you piece by piece
    until you release
    the blood into the river,
    water to wine,
    nothing finer than the taste
    of a sliver,
    until your throat
    melds into the snow,
    until frost bite
    freezes you,
    until I feed you to the dogs,
    and you beg
    saying they will kill too slow,
    and your bones and joints will pull
    and you will feel pain like
    nothing ever before felt from a human
    being
    and you will be sent eternally
    into agony
    and I will see the look on your face
    as you fade away,
    as your skin decays into the melting earth.
    How feeble you will look,
    how broken, disoriented
    you will feel
    and how that knife
    will burn
    and the frost
    will sting your blood
    and now you will see.
    Now you will finally see something
    no one else has thought or felt
    or realized in this lifetime.
