Text Quotes
No man will subject himself to the ridicule of pretending that any natural connection subsists between the sun or the seasons, and the period within which human virtue can bear the temptations of power. Happily for mankind, liberty is not, in this respect, confined to any single point of time, but lies within extremes, which afford sufficient latitude for all the variations which may be required by the various situations and circumstances of civil society  (Civil Quotes) History will also give occasion to expatiate on the advantage of civil orders and constitutions; how men and their properties are protected by joining in societies and establishing government; their industry encouraged and rewarded, arts invented, and life made more comfortable; the advantages of liberty, mischiefs of licentiousness, benefits arising from good laws and a due execution of justice. Thus may the first principles of sound politics be fixed in the minds of youth  (Civil Quotes) Americans are tired of the games and the lies of today’s media. They want the truth. Imagine this. No censors, no barricades, no statists. We will be able to engage viewers directly on subjects that matter most to them, from finances to civil liberties to foreign policy  (Civil Quotes) The main achievement of economics is that it has provided a theory of peaceful human cooperation. This is why the harbingers of violent conflict have branded it as a dismal science and why this age of wars, civil wars, and destruction has no use for it  (Civil Quotes) The only lesson to extract from any civil war is that it’s pointless and futile and ugly, and that there is nothing glamorous or heroic about it. There are heroes, but the causes are never heroic  (Civil Quotes) There is a human capital crisis in the federal government. Not only are we losing the decades of talent as civil servants retire, we are not doing enough to develop and nurture the next generation of public servants  (Civil Quotes) They don’t have special rights because we have civil rights laws that protect them. The laws work both ways  (Civil Quotes) I urge the enactment of a civil service law so explicit and so strong that no partisan official will dare evade it, basing all rewards, promotions and salaries solely on merit, on loyalty and industry in the public service  (Civil Quotes) I am confident that this legislature will rise above partisan bickering, especially after the public promises its members made last fall, and that it will demonstrate a high capacity for civil service  (Civil Quotes) In college, I got interested in news because the world was coming apart. The civil rights movement, the antiwar movement, the women’s right movement. That focused my radio ambitions toward news  (Civil Quotes) The utter helplessness of a conquered people is perhaps the most tragic feature of a civil war or any other sort of war  (Civil Quotes) Civil rights are more important today than they ever have been in our country. There is so much divisiveness today  (Civil Quotes) When and under what conditions is the black man to have a free ballot? When is he in fact to have those full civil rights which have so long been his in law?  (Civil Quotes) Segregation was a burden for many blacks, because the end of the civil war and the amendments added to the constitution elevated expectations beyond reality in some respects  (Civil Quotes) Here, also, has been evolved the form of government consistent with the largest possible civil liberty  (Civil Quotes) We made fracking a civil rights issue. Because that is what it is. We all have a right to a healthy environment and to clean water. And so do our children  (Civil Quotes) Jesus, in some respects, was an anarchist, for he had no idea of civil government. That government seems to him purely and simply an abuse  (Civil Quotes) The civil libertarians among us would rather defend the constitution than protect our nation’s security  (Civil Quotes) Individual and national rights to wealth rest on the basis of civil and international law, or at least of custom that has the force of law  (Civil Quotes) Civility is not something that automatically happens. Civil societies come about because people want them to  (Civil Quotes) The idea that religious liberty is the generating principle of civil, and that civil liberty is the necessary condition of religious, was a discovery reserved for the seventeenth century  (Civil Quotes) F local civil government is necessary for local civil peace, then world civil government is necessary for world peace  (Civil Quotes) In civil war it is not given to every man to know how to conduct himself. There is something more than military prudence necessary; there is need of sagacity and the knowledge of men  (Civil Quotes) By placing these people with foreign ideas in camps, german blood was saved. Would it have been better to have a civil war?  (Civil Quotes) What we’re gonna find out, bob, in the next six to nine months is whether we have liberated a country or uncorked a civil war  (Civil Quotes) The most important civil liberty... Is to stay alive and to be free from violence and death  (Civil Quotes) America stands strongest in challenging terrorism when we do not give up an inch of our civil liberties  (Civil Quotes) The problem is clear: The unreliability of eyewitness identification evidence poses one of the most serious problems in the administration of criminal justice and civil litigation  (Civil Quotes) Damn with faint praise, assent with civil leer, and without sneering, teach the rest to sneer; willing to wound, and yet afraid to strike, just hint a fault, and hesitate dislike  (Civil Quotes) We are sure to be losers when we quarrel with ourselves; it is a civil war, and in all such contentions, triumphs are defeats  (Civil Quotes)
