The Difference Between Freedom And Liberty

'Liberty' he uses to denote external circumstances, while 'freedom' is more like an inner mental experience. Liberty is political and perhaps also economic. Freedom is psychological, even existential. [1]

liberty implies a system of rules, a "network of restraint and order," hence the word's close association with political life. Freedom has a more general meaning, which ranges from an opposition to slavery to the absence of psychological or personal encumbrances (no one would describe liberty as another name for nothing left to lose).[2]

In America we have Liberty. We are not free to do as we please. Freedom must be restricted to the point that we do not encroach on others liberty. Liberty is given by the creator and cannot be taken away, freedom is given by a government and can be taken away.[3]
