In particle physics, a fundamental observation is that when a particle is confined to a space, it responds with motion. The smaller the confinement, the higher the velocity of motion. An analogy can be made here with human freedom and liberty.

An electron confined to the volume of an atom has a velocity of ~200 miles/second A proton or neutron confined to the volume of an atom's nucleus has a velocity of ~40,000 miles/second It's tricky for the mind of a Sapian to conceptualise these velocities (certainly is for me)

If you put us in a cage, we will be restless But if you let us roam in the field, we will feel free and at peace.
