Rights Quotes

In the old times men carried out their rights for themselves as they lived, but nowadays every baby seems born with a social manifesto in it's mouth much bigger than itself Picture Quote #1

I'm not going to say I was opposed to the Vietnam War. I'm going to say I'm opposed to war. But I'm also opposed to protests that deny other people their rights Picture Quote #1

The records of adopted children are sealed in California. That seal is considered inviolable. The judge ruled that, because I was famous, he didn't have the same rights as other kids Picture Quote #1

My image had always been very heterosexual, very straight. So it was a nice experience for me, a chance to clarify my own feelings about gay and lesbian civil rights Picture Quote #1

A community is democratic only when the humblest and weakest person can enjoy the highest civil, economic, and social rights that the biggest and most powerful possess Picture Quote #1

There's good reason to be excited. You have the first woman running who is qualified, and a very attractive African American who has demonstrated crossover appeal. I got involved in politics 40 years ago during the civil rights movement, so yes, it's an exciting thing Picture Quote #1

It is high time to compel man by the might of right to give woman her political, legal and social rights. She will find her own sphere in accordance with her capacities, powers and tastes; and yet she will be woman still Picture Quote #1

Individuality is the aim of political liberty. By leaving to the citizen as much freedom of action and of being, as comports with order and the rights of others, the institutions render him truly a freeman. He is left to pursue his means of happiness in his own manner Picture Quote #1

Equality, in a social sense, may be divided into that of condition and that of rights. Equality of condition is incompatible with civilization, and is found only to exist in those communities that are but slightly removed from the savage state. In practice, it can only mean a common misery Picture Quote #1

To throw obstacles in the way of a complete education is like putting out the eyes; to deny the rights of property, like cutting off the hands. To deny political equality is to rob the ostracized of all self-respect; of credit in the market place; of recompense in the world of work; of a voice among those who make and administer the law; a choice in the jury before whom they are tried, and in the judge who decides their punishment Picture Quote #1

Women's degradation is in man's idea of his sexual rights. Our religion, laws, customs, are all founded on the belief that woman was made for man. Come what will, my whole soul rejoices in the truth that I have uttered Picture Quote #1

Now, in view of this entire disfranchisement of one half the people of this country, their social and religious degradation - in view of the unjust laws above mentioned, and because women do feel themselves aggrieved, oppressed, and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred rights, we insist that they have immediate admission to all the rights and privileges which belong to them as citizens of the United States Picture Quote #1

The point I wish plainly to bring before you on this occasion is the individuality of each human soul; our Protestant idea, the right of individual conscience and judgment - our republican idea, individual citizenship. In discussing the rights of woman, we are to consider, first, what belongs to her as an individual, in a world of her own, the arbiter of her own destiny, an imaginary Robinson Crusoe with her woman Friday on a solitary island. Her rights under such circumstances are to use all her faculties for her own safety and happiness Picture Quote #1

I firmly believe in the rule of law as the foundation for all of our basic rights Picture Quote #1

All the rights secured to the citizens under the Constitution are worth nothing, and a mere bubble, except guaranteed to them by an independent and virtuous Judiciary Picture Quote #1

I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of it's successful experiment that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office Picture Quote #1

The individual who refuses to defend his rights when called by his Government, deserves to be a slave, and must be punished as an enemy of his country and friend to her foe Picture Quote #1

I believe in the admission of women to the full rights of citizenship and share in government, on the express grounds that few women keep house so badly or with such wastefulness as chancellors of the exchequer keep the state Picture Quote #1

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights. Get up, stand up, don`t give up the fight Picture Quote #1

So what we're talking about here is human rights. The right to live like a human. The right to live, period. And what we're facing in Africa is an unprecedented threat to human dignity and equality Picture Quote #1

What can be said for a man who would allow his home to be invaded by strangers who demanded they be fed, clothed, housed and granted the rights of the first born? What can be said for a ruling elite that permits this to be done to the nation, and who celebrate it as a milestone of moral progress? Picture Quote #1

The Sharon Plan is not a peace plan. It is a unilateral solution to be imposed by Israel... A Palestinian leader who signs on to this surrender of land and rights would be signing his death warrant Picture Quote #1

We grant no dukedoms to the few, we hold like rights and shall; equal on Sunday in the pew, on Monday in the mall. For what avail the plough or sail, or land, or life, if freedom fail? Picture Quote #1

Human life consists in mutual service. No grief, pain, misfortune, or broken heart, is excuse for cutting off one's life while any power of service remains. But when all usefulness is over, when one is assured of an unavoidable and imminent death, it is the simplest of human rights to choose a quick and easy death in place of a slow and horrible one Picture Quote #1

The bringing about of order is the first and fundamental task of government. We accept limits on our rights for the sake of a larger social compact all the time Picture Quote #1

The United Nations will be at the heart of our international activities. France will assume it's full responsibilities at the Security Council by putting it's status at the service of peace, respect for human rights and development Picture Quote #1

Legally speaking, there are no such things as 'public rights,' as distinguished from individual rights. Legally speaking, there is no such creature or thing as 'the public.' Picture Quote #1

To say that majorities, as such, have a right to rule minorities, is equivalent to saying that minorities have, and ought to have, no rights, except such as majorities please to allow them Picture Quote #1

Whose rights will we acknowledge? Whose human dignity will we respect? For whose well being will we, as a people, assume responsibility? Picture Quote #1

The New Testament picks up from the old the theme that God intends, in the end, to put the whole creation to rights Picture Quote #1
