About this Quote

This quote by E. M. Forster talks to the power of liberty and the impact it can have on an individual's life. It recommends that those who have been permitted to experience freedom have a particular appearance in their eyes that is a sign of maturity and knowledge. This look is not something that can be acquired through books or lectures, but rather through the lived experience of liberty. It is an appearance that is just possible when one has been permitted to make their own choices and to live their life as they see fit. This appearance is a sign of strength and strength, and it is something that can just be attained through the experience of freedom. It is an appearance that speaks to the power of liberty and the value of permitting people to make their own choices and to live their lives as they please.
