Famous quotes containing the words rights to, rights and/or passport:

    Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)

    It is better to pay court to a queen ... than to worship, as we too often do, some unworthy person whose wealth is his sole passport into society. I believe that a habit of respect is good for the human race.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
