Quintus Horatius Flaccus, better known as Horace, was a Roman poet from the first century B.C. Here's how he defined freedom:

"Who then is free? The wise man, who is lord over
himself, whom neither poverty, or death, nor bonds
affright, who bravely defies his passions, and
scorns ambition, who in himself is a whole,
smoothed and rounded, so that nothing outside
can rest on the polished surface, and against whom
Fortune in her onset is ever defeated."
