Script

Original:

You I may feel free, but I'm still being controlled. Absolutely. We're-- we're all controlled all the time, and that's, that's one thing I think we simply must recognize, and until we do, we're likely to worry about control. But we're all... You're controlling me, I'm controlling you, parents control their children, the children control parents, employers, um, control workers, workers control employers. There always... This is going on all the time. You're controlled by the physical environment you live in, controlled by the social environment. This is, this is going on and has to be recognized as such. Now the literatures of freedom do not prepare us to deal with very much of this.

Translated:

Puede que me sienta libre, pero sigo estando controlada. Absolutamente. Todos estamos controlados todo el tiempo. Y eso es algo que simplemente debemos reconocer, y hasta que no lo hagamos, nos preocuparemos por el control. Pero todos... Usted me controla, yo a usted, los padres a los hijos, los hijos a los padres, empleadores a trabajadores, y viceversa. Siempre... Esto ocurre todo el tiempo. Eres controlado por el entorno físico en que vives y el social. Esto pasa y debe reconocerse. La literatura sobre la libertad no nos prepara para lidiar con gran parte de esto.
