Famous quotes containing the words moral and/or rights:

    There are no moral phenomena at all, but only a moral interpretation of phenomena.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    ... most Southerners of my parents’ era were raised to feel that it wasn’t respectable to be rich. We felt that all patriotic Southerners had lost everything in defense of the South, and sufficient time hadn’t elapsed for respectable rebuilding of financial security in a war- impoverished region.
    Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 1, ch. 1 (1962)
