Famous quotes containing the words witness and/or rights:

    That the Jews assumed a right exclusively to the benefits of God will be a lasting witness against them & the same will it be against Christians.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    In the course of the actual attainment of selfish ends—an attainment conditioned in this way by universality—there is formed a system of complete interdependence, wherein the livelihood, happiness, and legal status of one man is interwoven with the livelihood, happiness, and rights of all. On this system, individual happiness, etc. depend, and only in this connected system are they actualized and secured.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
