Negative Rights

Famous quotes containing the words negative and/or rights:

    There is no reason why parents who work hard at a job to support a family, who nurture children during the hours at home, and who have searched for and selected the best [daycare] arrangement possible for their children need to feel anxious and guilty. It almost seems as if our culture wants parents to experience these negative feelings.
    Gwen Morgan (20th century)

    I recognize no rights but human rights—I know nothing of men’s rights and women’s rights ...
    Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
