"THE BEX EAGLE" ORIGINAL BRONZE BY LORENZO E. GHIGLIERI 1980 FREEDOM'S SYMBOL
FREE MEN MUST RE-DEDICATE THEMSELVES TO THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM. THEY MUST UNDERSTAND WITH A NEW CERTAINTY OF CONVICTION THAT THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM IS THE CAUSE OF THE HUMAN INDIVIDUAL. HUMAN INDIVIDUALITY IS THE BASIS OF EVERY VALUE --SPIRITUAL, MORAL, INTELLECTUAL, CREATIVE -- IN HUMAN LIFE.
FREEDOM IS THE RIGHT TO ONE'S SOUL; THE RIGHT OF EACH PERSON TO APPROACH GOD IN HIS OWN WAY AND BY HIS OWN MEANS. IT IS A MAN'S RIGHT TO POSSESS HIS MIND AND CONSCIENCE FOR HIMSELF. TO THOSE
WHO PUT THEIR TRUST IN FREEDOM, THE STATE CAN HAVE NO SOVEREIGNTY OVER THE MIND OR SOUL -- MUST BE THE SERVANT OF MAN'S REASON, NOT THE MASTER.
