To deny people their human rights is to challenge their very humanity.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Human rights are not worthy of the name if they do not protect the people we don't like as well as those we do.
Human rights is something that wasn't hard to be inspired to write about because there have been so many violations of those rights.
In any human-rights campaign, everybody must do what they can.
Fundamental violations of human rights always lead to people feeling less and less human.
We can never protect the rights by only thinking about our rights. By performing the universal responsibility with a compassionate mind, you can protect your own right and that of others.
The thing about talking about human rights is that when one bears in mind the sharp end of it, one does not want to worry too much about semantics.
Protecting the rights of even the least individual among us is basically the only excuse the government has for even existing.
The rights of some must not be enjoyed by denying the rights of others. Neither can we permit states' rights at the expense of human rights.
Those who have been outspoken in advocating human rights during these last forty years, have themselves grabbed the most fundamental of human rights from the people of the Third-World countries.
It is time in the West to defend not so much human rights as human obligations.
