Text Quotes
For a decade, makers of AIDS medicines had rejected the idea of lowering prices in poor countries for fear of eroding profits in rich ones. The position required a balancing act, because the companies had to deflect attacks on the global reach of their patents, which granted exclusive marketing rights for antiretroviral drugs.  (Rights Quotes) I would have to say all of the civil rights acts, because there were three, and even, say, the Immigration Act, which I think also is a civil rights act, maybe on a global perspective, that he cared very, very much about it.  (Rights Quotes) I really believe in a globalist agenda, but globalization isn’t just allowing companies to trade freely all over the world. It’s about what types of rights and responsibilities come with that.  (Rights Quotes) I work for the Global Fund for Women, an organization that is actively supporting women’s rights groups in 160 countries around the world.  (Rights Quotes) It is easily and often overlooked that when Thomas Jefferson asserted that life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness were inalienable human rights, he did so on the ground that they had been endowed by God, our Creator.  (Rights Quotes) America is more than just a place...it’s an idea. It’s the only country founded on an idea. Our rights come from nature and God, not government. We promise equal opportunity, not equal outcomes.  (Rights Quotes) America derives its laws from its Constitution. It derives its values from the Bible. We don’t get inalienable rights from the Constitution; we get them from God.  (Rights Quotes) The rights of Englishmen are derived from God, not from king or Parliament, and would be secured by the study of history, law, and tradition.  (Rights Quotes) God grant that not only the love of liberty but a thorough knowledge of the rights of man may pervade all the nations of the earth, so that a philosopher may set his foot anywhere on its surface and say: ‘This is my country.’  (Rights Quotes) Every person is created in the image of God and has value. Every person. Every person is to be treated with respect. Every person is also a citizen of some country. In their country, they have rights and responsibilities; in every other country, they are a guest.  (Rights Quotes) People don’t think about the fact that when Barack Obama’s parents had him - it was illegal for them to be married in several states in this country. So if we start making it okay that certain people can marry and other people can’t, it’s a slippery slope of civil rights. Who knows who is going to be allowed to marry or not marry next.  (Rights Quotes) Ants are good citizens; they place group interest first. But they carry it so far, they have few or no political rights. An ant doesn’t have the vote, apparently; he just has his duties.  (Rights Quotes) A pardon for Edward Snowden would be good for America and would help burnish the president’s legacy as one of the primary defenders of human rights.  (Rights Quotes) I’m all for consumer rights. I get very aggravated if I don’t get a good service.  (Rights Quotes) Yooralla, like most disability service organisations, is full of good people who are passionate about the rights of people with disabilities.  (Rights Quotes) At various times during the last four thousand years God has asserted his rights and endeavoured to establish his own authority, his own laws, and his own government among the children of men.  (Rights Quotes) All too frequently, the knee jerk reaction to tragedies by the media and chattering class is to move to restrict our rights... Our founding documents make it clear that our inalienable rights come from God and that the job of the government is to ensure and protect those God-given rights.  (Rights Quotes) If the average citizen thinks God has nothing to do with government, who then creates our rights and what makes them inalienable?  (Rights Quotes) Free speech rights means that government officials are barred from creating lists of approved and disapproved political ideas and then using the power of the state to enforce those preferences.  (Rights Quotes) The U.S. government officials lie when they talk about human rights. They’re a bunch of hypocrites and liars. You can’t take it seriously.  (Rights Quotes) We don’t need a weakened government but a strong government that would take responsibility for the rights of the individual and care for the society as a whole.  (Rights Quotes) Most students graduate from high school knowing nine words about the civil rights movement: Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, and I Have a Dream. And that’s it!  (Rights Quotes) My great grandmother threw herself in front of a bus. The police tried to say she was committed suicide but the family knew she was just trying to stop civil rights.  (Rights Quotes) America is great not because it’s a team. America is great because it is a nation whose founding documents elevated the rights of the individual.  (Rights Quotes) The great paradox of the civil rights revolution is that instead of enforcing and expanding equality before the law, the revolution created differential rights based on race, gender and, any day now, sexual orientation. The great liberal revolution, centuries in the making, that brought forth equality in law has been overthrown. In its place we see rising a new feudal legal order of status-based rights.  (Rights Quotes) A civilization without insanity, without criminals and without war, where the able can prosper and honest beings can have rights, and where man is free to rise to greater heights, are the aims of Scientology.  (Rights Quotes) Since the days of Greece and Rome the word ‘citizen’ was a title of honor. We have often seen more emphasis put on the rights of citizenship than on its responsibilities.  (Rights Quotes) I invited some friends over for a barbeque and made grilled cheese sandwiches. When they complained that the sandwiches were charred and inedible, I said That’s pure carbon right there. That’s what we are, and with that simple statement I recruited seven more members to the Human Rights Are Toast Organization.  (Rights Quotes) We need a broad commitment to human rights across the board. We cannot attain that simply by protecting one oppressed group or the other.  (Rights Quotes) The raids on Freedom House, the National Democratic Institute and International Republican Institute, the Adenauer Foundation, and other groups helping Egyptians move toward respect for democratic politics and human rights were of a piece with the practices of Hosni Mubarak - only bolder and more repressive.  (Rights Quotes)
