问答题And speaking of freedom, is not the author free, as few men are free Is he not secure, as few men are secure The tools of his industry are so common and so cheap that they have almost ceased to have commercial value, He needs no bulky pile of raw material, no elaborate apparatus, no service of men or animals. He is dependent for his occupation upon no one but himself, and nothing outside him that his occupation upon no one but himself, and nothing outside him that maters. He is the sovereign of an empire, self supporting, self-contained.. No one can deprive him of his stock in trade; no one can force him to exercise his faculty against his will; no one can prevent him exercising it as he chooses. The pen is the great liberator of men and nations. No chains can bind, no poverty can choke, no tariff can restrict the free play of his mind.(From The Joys of Writing by Winston Churchill)
