Famous quotes containing the words human, rights and/or abuses:

    One of the greatest pains to human nature is the pain of a new idea.
    Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

    A state that denies its citizens their basic rights becomes a danger to its neighbors as well: internal arbitrary rule will be reflected in arbitrary external relations. The suppression of public opinion, the abolition of public competition for power and its public exercise opens the way for the state power to arm itself in any way it sees fit.... A state that does not hesitate to lie to its own people will not hesitate to lie to other states.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)

    Liberty may be endangered by the abuses of liberty as well as by the abuses of power.
    James Madison (1751–1836)
