"I will begin with this confession: whatever I have done in the course of my life, whether it be good or evil, has been done freely; I am a free agent"
- Giacomo Casanova
About this Quote
Giacomo Casanova's quote is a reflection on his life and the options he has made. He acknowledges that he has done both good and bad things, but he takes obligation for his actions, declaring that he is a totally free agent. This recommends that he thinks he is in control of his own fate and that he is not bound by external forces. He knows the effects of his options and is willing to accept them. This quote is a testament to Casanova's strong sense of self-determination and his belief that he is the master of his own fate. It is a pointer that all of us have the power to make our own choices and that we need to take obligation for the repercussions of our options.
"Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man's own advantage"
