Civil Quotes

I see every chance of a long, confused and disorganizing civil war, and I feel no desire to take a hand therein Picture Quote #1

We’ve learned that it will take more than one generation to bring about change. The fight for civil rights has developed into a broader concern for human rights, and that encompasses a great many people and countries. Those of us who live in a democracy have a responsibility to be the voice for those whose voices are stilled Picture Quote #1

I was always a politician from the day the civil rights people chose me as their protest singer Picture Quote #1

Selfish men were... trying to make capital for themselves out of the sacred cause of civil rights Picture Quote #1

The civil power must not be subservient to the advantage of any one individual, or of some few persons; inasmuch as it was established for the common good of all Picture Quote #1

Famine was quite deliberately employed as an instrument of national policy, as the last means of breaking the resistance of the peasantry to the new system where they are divorced from personal ownership of the land and obligated to work on the conditions which the state may demand from them... This famine may fairly be called political because it was not the result of any overwhelming natural catastrophe or such complete exhaustions of the country’s resources in foreign and civil wars Picture Quote #1

Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. It is not for the sake of a good public administration that it is required, but for the security in the pursuit of the highest objects of civil society, and of private life Picture Quote #1

I believe that education is the civil rights issue of our generation. And if you care about promoting opportunity and reducing inequality, the classroom is the place to start. Great teaching is about so much more than education; it is a daily fight for social justice Picture Quote #1

Peace is defined as harmony among those who are divided. When, therefore, we end the civil war within our nature and cultivate peace within ourselves, we become at peace Picture Quote #1

God has appointed two kinds of government in the world, which are distinct in their nature, and ought never to be confounded together; one of which is called civil, the other ecclesiastical government Picture Quote #1

It is contrary to the principles of reason and justice that any should be compelled to contribute to the maintenance of a church with which their consciences will not permit them to join, and from which they can derive no benefit; for remedy whereof, and that equal liberty as well religious as civil, may be universally extended to all the good people of this commonwealth Picture Quote #1

This is one of the consequences of the civil war. People stop trusting each other, and every stranger becomes an enemy Picture Quote #1

That in a civil war there is continuous fighting, based on grievences that are forever changing Picture Quote #1

As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people duly before them, may attempt to tyrannize,... The people are confirmed by the next article in their right to keep and bear arms Picture Quote #1

Almost all the civil liberty now enjoyed in the world owes its origin to the principles of the christian religion Picture Quote #1

You can’t put much on paper before you betray your secret self, try as you will to keep things civil Picture Quote #1

Without the restraints of religion and social worship, men become savages much sooner than savages become civilized by means of religion and civil government Picture Quote #1

Because I’m a civil rights activist, I am also an animal rights activist. Animals and humans suffer and die alike. Violence causes the same pain, the same spilling of blood, the same stench of death, the same arrogant, cruel and vicious taking of life. We shouldn’t be a part of it Picture Quote #1

Modern totalitarianism can be defined as the establishment, by means of the state of exception, of a legal civil war that allows for the physical elimination not only of political adversaries but of entire categories of citizens who for some reason cannot be integrated into the political system Picture Quote #1

You need a civil society... Bushfires can achieve the change from society to community. Bushfires can. Floods can. Ghastly crimes and disasters can. Places can change... but it takes blood, sweat and tears Picture Quote #1

Every man by nature is a freeman born; by nature no man cometh out of the womb under any civil subjection to king, prince, or judge Picture Quote #1

Justice is indivisible. You can’t decide who gets civil rights and who doesn’t Picture Quote #1

The first duty of government is to protect the citizen from assault. Unless it does this, all the civil rights and civil liberties in the world aren’t worth a dime Picture Quote #1

Freedom of religion means the right of the individual to choose and to adhere to whichever religious beliefs he may prefer, to join with others in religious associations to express these beliefs, and to incur no civil disabilities because of his choice Picture Quote #1

I don’t like the royal family, I don’t like the establishment, I don’t like the civil service Picture Quote #1

We will not let governments off the hook. We will look to civil society to help us, to pin governments, to what they have committed to here. And we will report on it Picture Quote #1

A second line is in effect a civil rights demonstration. Literally, demonstrating the civil right of the community to assemble in the street for peaceful purposes. Or, more simply, demonstrating the civil right of the community to exist Picture Quote #1

The written history of the world is largely a history of warfare, because the states within which we live came into existence largely through conquest, civil strife, or struggles for independence Picture Quote #1

I will not resolve a land dispute if civil groups or politicians are involved in the land disputes Picture Quote #1

The copyright industry has managed to kill civil liberties for their own children, ushering in a dystopian surveillance machine, merely to avoid taking responsibility for their own business failures. I lack words to quantify my contempt for these utter parasites Picture Quote #1
