The motto of our civilization is: "Man is born free and everywhere he is in chains", as said by Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
This is our motto because our civilization is based on freedom. Our people are free at all times in our community. Anywhere outside the community they are not free and are surrounded by rules and laws that keep them "in chains". Even if they are not laws they are held in chains by the expectations and judgement of others. We strive to understand each others needs and abilities and not discriminate, for everyone is equal and important. People should be just as free throughout their life as they were when they are born, and they should live life in a liberated, personal, and free way.
