When I launched the development of the GNU system, I explicitly said the purpose of developing this system is so we can use our computers and have freedom, thus if you use some other free system instead but you have freedom, then it's a success. It's not popularity for our code but it's success for our goal.

Value your freedom or you will lose it, teaches history. 'Don't bother us with politics', respond those who don't want to learn.

Free software is software that respects your freedom and the social solidarity of your community. So it's free as in freedom.

In the free/libre software movement, we develop software that respects users' freedom, so we and you can escape from software that doesn't.

If ebooks mean that readers' freedom must either increase or decrease, we must demand the increase.
