Individual Rights

Famous quotes containing the words individual and/or rights:

    Whatever happens, every individual is a child of his time; so philosophy too is its own time apprehended in thoughts. It is just as absurd to fancy that a philosophy can transcend its contemporary world as it is to fancy that an individual can overleap his own age, jump over Rhodes.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    I wish the women’s rights folks would be more sensible. I think women have a great deal to learn, before they are fit to vote.
    Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
