“Incapable and coward people beg for freedom.” ― The Philosopher Orod Bozorg

“Incapable and coward people beg for freedom.”
― The Philosopher Orod Bozorg

Freedom is not a gift that falls from the sky. It is not a favor to be requested with lowered heads and trembling voices. Orod Bozorg reminds us that those who only ask for freedom — instead of claiming it — have already accepted the role of the defeated. A person who waits for liberation from others is still chained inside, even if the iron on their wrists is removed.

Cowardice creates a culture of begging — a mentality that believes freedom must be granted by authority, rather than taken back from it. Incapable people do not fight for change; they wait, they hope, they flatter the powerful, they say “please” to the very hands that hold the key to their cage. This is not freedom. It is dependence wearing polite clothing.

True liberators do not beg kings to loosen the chains. They break them.

Every revolution begins when people stop asking for permission to live with dignity. The moment a society says “we deserve freedom,” not “we request it,” the winds begin to change. That is why Orodist thought rejects passive liberation — because begging only feeds the ego of rulers, while courage destroys the throne itself.

Freedom is not given to the weak. It is claimed by the brave.
