Nations Human Rights

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

    Two nations between whom there is no intercourse and no sympathy; who are as ignorant of each other’s habits, thoughts, and feelings, as if they were dwellers in different zones, or inhabitants of different planets.... The rich and the poor.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    How rare to be born a human being!
    Wash him off with cedar-bark and milkweed
    send the damned doctors home.
    Baby, baby, noble baby,
    Noble-hearted baby
    Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    It seemed like this was one big Prozac nation, one big mess of malaise. Perhaps the next time half a million people gather for a protest march on the White House green it will not be for abortion rights or gay liberation, but because we’re all so bummed out.
    Elizabeth Wurtzel, U.S. author. Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed in America, p. 298, Houghton Mifflin (1994)
