Text Quotes
It is doubtful that congress would pass the Bill of Rights if it were introduced today  (Rights Quotes) The pursuit of happiness is an overview kind of thing. It’s not in the Bill of Rights.  (Rights Quotes) Democracy, in any rational form, also imposes conditions on majority rule. That’s what the Bill of Rights is about, for example.  (Rights Quotes) I filed the first gay rights bill in Massachusetts history in 1972 in the legislature, one of the first in the country.  (Rights Quotes) Everything hinges on education. Without it, you can’t advocate for proper health care, for housing, for a civil rights bill that ensures your rights.  (Rights Quotes) The very purpose of a bill of rights is to withdraw certain subjects from...political controversy, to place them beyond the reach of majorities.  (Rights Quotes) I have a recurring fantasy that one more article has been added to the Bill of Rights: the right to free access to imagination.  (Rights Quotes) We have enjoyed so much freedom for so long that we are perhaps in danger of forgetting how much blood it cost to establish the Bill of Rights.  (Rights Quotes) The very inclusion of the right to keep and bear arms in the Bill of Rights shows that the framers of the Constitution considered it an individual right.  (Rights Quotes) The Republican program is the profit-protection program for the insurance industry It’s a bill of goods, it’s a bill of wrongs. Ours is a patients’ bill of rights.  (Rights Quotes) I do not like [in the new Federal Constitution] the omission of a Bill of Rights providing clearly and without the aid of sophisms for... protection against standing armies  (Rights Quotes) In my opinion, the battles over birth control and Planned Parenthood are primarily neither political nor religious. This is an issue of equality for women. This is an issue of women’s rights: Planned Parenthood is the most important private provider of reproductive health care for women in the United States.  (Rights Quotes) One of the biggest issues that we face is that we have people who have their own particular concerns, whether it’s on abortion, birth control, divorce and remarriage, civil rights or social justice.  (Rights Quotes) Social media changed Chinese mindset. More and more Chinese intend to embrace freedom of speech and human rights as their birthright, not some imported American privilege. But also, it gave the Chinese a national public sphere for people to, it’s like a training of their citizenship, preparing for future democracy.  (Rights Quotes) Black-on-black crime is a massive human rights issue that’s going on in America  (Rights Quotes) After Civil Rights, it was very awkward for whites and blacks. We didn’t know how to talk to each other.  (Rights Quotes) Ever since the civil rights movement, the black church has always encouraged people to utilize their voting right, which is a right that was fought for.  (Rights Quotes) Some of the most moving experiences I’ve had are just in black churches in the South, during the Civil Rights Movement, where people were getting beaten, killed, really struggling for the most elementary rights.  (Rights Quotes) The liberal psyche wants to protect minorities, to apologize for imperialism, colonialism, slavery, and the appalling treatment of black people during the civil rights movement. At the same time, they want to continue to defend the rights of individuals.  (Rights Quotes) I got out of the Army - in my world - I came to New York, for instance, when the civil rights movement was just beginning, and that created a certain energy, a certain rumble, a certain impetus for black actors.  (Rights Quotes) If Barack Obama now, or some black person in the future, should become president, neither Jesse Jackson nor Al Sharpton would be out of a job. A black president can’t end black misery; a black president can’t be a civil rights leader or primarily a crusader for racial justice.  (Rights Quotes) Senator John Stennis: The civil rights movement did more to free the white man that the black man. ... It freed my soul.  (Rights Quotes) The black power movement was not a separation from the civil rights movement, but a continuation of this whole process of democratization.  (Rights Quotes) Yet civil rights issues are very much on the front burner in South Carolina between the Black Lives Matter movement and police shootings.  (Rights Quotes) I think hip-hop has definitely brought the black experience to white kids more than the civil rights movement did and more than any teacher’s well-intentioned lecture on Martin Luther King did.  (Rights Quotes) Napster was a black market for music. Ninety-nine per cent of the music that people were downloading was illegal because they didn’t have the rights for it.  (Rights Quotes) President Obama is a man who had certain advantages because of the civil rights movement. He had the opportunity to go to some of the best schools in this country - schools that train you how to run the political paradigm, not challenge it. The leaders of the Black Power Movement were challenging that paradigm.  (Rights Quotes) A state of war is not a blank check for the president when it comes to the rights of the nation’s citizens.  (Rights Quotes) Blessed be the memory of those few brethren who contended so strenuously for their constitutional rights and religious freedom, against such an overwhelming force of desperadoes!  (Rights Quotes) I somewhat resist the whole gay rights-vampire rights metaphor because it is fraught with problems. I don’t want to be seen as a gay man as a blood-sucking killer. I don’t think it is the way to win hearts and minds.  (Rights Quotes)
