Freeness

By freedom is meant, under the present bourgeois conditions of production, free trade, free selling and buying.
The Communist Manifesto by Marx, Karl & Engles, Frederick View in context
He was just as free to speak to gentlemen of his own rank as to those below him; for another day, when we were out, we met a Captain Langley, a friend of our master's; he was driving a splendid pair of grays in a kind of break.
Black Beauty by Sewell, Anna View in context
Besides, he will at once be transformed from a human being into an organ-stop or something of the sort; for what is a man without desires, without free will and without choice, if not a stop in an organ?
Notes from the Underground by Dostoyevsky, Fyodor View in context
