"once you have been stripped of everything only your purpose will remain, then you shall be free" who said this

That quote isn't directly attributed to any well-known historical figure, but it reflects themes found in Stoic philosophy, Zen Buddhism, and existentialist thought. It closely resembles ideas from Viktor Frankl (author of Man’s Search for Meaning), Friedrich Nietzsche, and Marcus Aurelius, who all emphasized purpose, suffering, and freedom.
The sentiment also echoes the Jedi philosophy from Star Wars and aspects of Buddhist teachings on detachment and enlightenment.
