“Be careful, giving freedom to the enemies of freedom is a terrible folly, because freedom needs to be maintained and guarded.” ― The Philosopher Orod Bozorg



“Be careful, giving freedom to the enemies of freedom is a terrible folly, because freedom needs to be maintained and guarded.”
The Philosopher Orod Bozorg

Freedom is not a gift that can be thrown into the hands of everyone without thought.
It is like a flame — bright, fragile, sacred — and if placed in the hands of those who hate its light, they will not protect it… they will extinguish it.

The enemies of freedom do not always appear with chains and whips.
Sometimes they speak the language of “order,” “morality,” “tradition,” or even “security.”
But behind every polished slogan stands the same intention:
to limit thought, to silence truth, to control life.

Orod warns us:
A free society is not built once — it must be defended every day.
Democracy is not destroyed in one night — it fades when people trust their enemies with the tools to dismantle it.

The collapse of freedom does not begin with force.
It begins with trusting the wrong hands.

Do not allow those who fear dissent to rule speech.
Do not allow those who fear equality to rule law.
Do not allow those who fear awakening to rule education.

Freedom is not fragile because it is weak.
It is fragile because people assume it will always be there
— even when its enemies are already inside the gates.
