Trenutno sam sva u nekom periodu citanja human rights/civil rights/animal rights quotes, tako da evo nekih koji mi se svidjaju
I hold it to be the inalienable right of anybody to go to hell in his own way. ~Robert Frost
I am the inferior of any man whose rights I trample underfoot. ~Horace Greeley
When a man wants to murder a tiger he calls it sport; when the tiger wants to murder him he calls it ferocity. ~George Bernard Shaw
The animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren; they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth. ~Henry Beston, The Outermost House, 1928
The practice of taking an eye for an eye results in a world full of blind people. ~Ghandi
Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself. ~Harvey Fierstein
We discovered that peace at any price is no peace at all. We discovered that life at any price has no value whatever; that life is nothing without the privileges, the prides, the rights, the joys which make it worth living, and also worth giving. And we also discovered that there is something more hideous, more atrocious than war or than death; and that is to live in fear. ~Eve Curie
A right is not what someone gives you; it's what no one can take from you. ~ Ramsey Clark
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
"When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it?"
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt
A good motivation is what is needed: compassion without dogmatism, without complicated philosophy; just understanding that others are human brothers and sisters, and respecting their human rights and dignities. That we humans can help each other is one of our unique human capacities. ~ Dalai Lama
