If you're right and you know it, speak your mind. Even if your a minority of one, the truth is still the truth.
-Gandhi-
"Home is the place where boys and girls first earn how to limit their wishes, abide by rules, and consider the rights and needs of others."
~ Sidonie Gruenberg
" Give to every human being every right that you claim for yourself ."
Robert Green Ingersoll
"Respect for the rights of others means peace."
~ Benito Juarez
"We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
~ Thomas Jefferson
"Those who surrender freedom for security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one."
Benjamin Franklin
"Better to die fighting for freedom then be a prisoner all the days of your life."
Bob Marley
Privacy is the foundation of all other rights. Arguing that you don't care about privacy because you have nothing to hide is like arguing that you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say.
Edward Snowden
Human rights and mutual respect are first learned at home and at school - though often they are instead trampled by dogmatic and intolerant parents and teachers, suppressive rules and bullying. And then that carries into the workplace and society.
"Anonymity is a shield from the tyranny of the majority... It thus exemplifies the purpose behind the Bill of Rights, and of the First Amendment in particular: to protect unpopular individuals from retaliation - and their ideas from suppression - at the hand of an intolerant society."
~ John Stevens (U.S. Supreme Court Justice)
"There can never be peace in a world where one man has his belly full and another man is starving."
Pancho Villa
"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers."
~ M. Scott Peck
