Freedom is impossible to attain

The struggle for freedom is notoriously unending: because human imagination has no limits, freedom can never be attained. Accordingly, although everyone is born free (i.e. with the ability to imagine), there is no generally accepted threshold for freedom or generally accepted definition of what it actually means to be free. Freedom is imagined each time, by each one of us, according to our imagination of either what is possible for us or what should ideally be the case—the point being that the relevant threshold is constantly changing in space and time throughout human history.
