I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do. I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.

Let’s hope the rules you find obnoxious don’t lead to your incarceration.
That would probably put an end to such a cavalier approach to being a member of a society.
