Text Quotes
I’m sad that it’s uncool or offensive to talk about environmental or human rights issues  (Human Rights Quotes) Governments that block the aspirations of their people, that steal or are corrupt, that oppress and torture or that deny freedom of expression and human rights should bear in mind that they will find it increasingly hard to escape the judgement of their own people, or where warranted, the reach of international law  (Human Rights Quotes) I’m more interested in politicians who deal with human rights in their own country rather than lecture the rest of the world  (Human Rights Quotes) Free expression is the base of human rights, the root of human nature and the mother of truth. To kill free speech is to insult human rights, to stifle human nature and to suppress truth  (Human Rights Quotes) Whether or not we continue to enforce a universal conception of human rights at moments of outrage and incomprehension, precisely when we think that others have taken themselves out of the human community as we know it, is a test of our very humanity  (Human Rights Quotes) .. Washington, where the human rights of terrorists are often given high priority. And I am certain liberal politicians would defend their position to the death. Because everyone knows liberals have never been wrong about anything. You can ask them. Anytime  (Human Rights Quotes) Human rights are not things that are put on the table for people to enjoy. These are things you fight for and then you protect  (Human Rights Quotes) 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  (Human Rights Quotes) The amount of violations of human rights in a country is always an inverse function of the amount of complaints about human rights violations heard from there. The greater the number of complaints being aired, the better protected are human rights in that country  (Human Rights Quotes) What is wrong with inciting intense dislike of a religion if the activities or teachings of that religion are so outrageous, irrational or abusive of human rights that they deserve to be intensely disliked?  (Human Rights Quotes) The solidarity which binds all men together as members of a common family makes it impossible for wealthy nations to look with indifference upon the hunger, misery and poverty of other nations whose citizens are unable to enjoy even elementary human rights. The nations of the world are becoming more and more dependent on one another and it will not be possible to preserve a lasting peace so long as glaring economic and social imbalances persist  (Human Rights Quotes) The basis of peace and stability, in any society, has to be the fullest respect for the human rights of all its people  (Human Rights Quotes) A truly free society must not include a peace which oppresses us. We must learn on our own terms what peace and freedom mean together. There can be no peace if there is social injustice and suppression of human rights, because external and internal peace are inseparable. Peace is not just the absence of mass destruction, but a positive internal and external condition in which people are free so that they can grow to their full potential  (Human Rights Quotes) War over water would be an ultimate obscenity. And yet, unfortunately it is conceivable... Water has been a source over so many years of erosion of confidence, of tension, of human rights abuses, really, of so many in areas whose traditional water supplies have been controlled and depleted by occupational authorities. That must stop if we’re going to be able to develop a climate for peace  (Human Rights Quotes) Whenever the dollar is held supreme and capitalistic interests dominate, a higher value will always be placed upon property rights than upon human rights  (Human Rights Quotes) Women had always fought for men, and for their children. Now they were ready to fight for their own human rights. Our militant movement was established  (Human Rights Quotes) This moon man right here stands for a lot more. This is the most important record out of all of them. Gay rights are human rights, there is no separation  (Human Rights Quotes) For me, campaigning and good business is also about putting forward solutions, not just opposing destructive practices or human rights abuses  (Human Rights Quotes) Human rights without responsibility, without a sense of decency, a sense of compassion, is not good enough for a society to flourish... We need to broaden our scope from the legalistic language to the language of the heart  (Human Rights Quotes) To me, a feminist belong in the same category as a humanist or an advocate for human rights. I don’t see why someone who’s a feminist should be thought of differently  (Human Rights Quotes) A century that began with children having virtually no rights is ending with children having the most powerful legal instrument that not only recognizes but protects their human rights  (Human Rights Quotes) The modern infrastructures that exists in the world all contribute to the advancement of human rights and democracy  (Human Rights Quotes) Women’s rights are an essential part of the overall human rights agenda, trained on the equal dignity and ability to live in freedom all people should enjoy  (Human Rights Quotes) It is never easy to define what is moral, particularly in foreign policy. But at the risk of being simplistic, it appears to me that a foreign policy that is morally right protects human rights everywhere  (Human Rights Quotes) There is so much each one of us can do to make a difference. We are at a dangerous juncture in the history of mankind... We need to defend our principles and values, human rights, civil liberties and the rule of international law. If we don’t our world will further descend into a state of chaos  (Human Rights Quotes) Human security comes only with human rights and the rule of law. Human rights are the basis for creating strong and accountable states without which there can be no political stability or social progress  (Human Rights Quotes) There is no excuse for human rights abuse, whether in the name of security or in the name of liberation  (Human Rights Quotes) We are opposing the exploitation of man by man, similarly we must oppose the exploitation of peoples by other peoples... but today this is no longer enough... we have to assist the peoples fighting for their independence to develop their economies, to increase their standard of living  (Human Rights Quotes) We are not myths of the past, ruins in the jungle, or zoos. We are people and we want to be respected, not to be victims of intolerance and racism  (Human Rights Quotes) Human rights are inscribed in the hearts of people; they were there long before lawmakers drafted their first proclamation  (Human Rights Quotes)
