As to the reserved and withdrawn areas, excluding and excepting only the national parks, it is manifest that justice, equality, and dignity for these States require that ultimately all should be ceded to the States wherein they lie. The theory that the Western States can not intelligently and wisely administer these areas, for example, the forest reserves, is based on the delinquencies and wastefulness of the States to the eastward which had their resources and their opportunity, and in some cases, as States, misused and abused their rights. This constitutes no reason as to why the same right which they enjoyed should be denied to the Western states. ~ Charles Edwin Winter
State Rights quotes by Charles Edwin Winter
Once the state is looked upon as the source of rights, rather than their bound protector, freedom becomes conditional on the pleasure of the state. ~ Mary McCarthy
State Rights quotes by Mary McCarthy
Young people today are being robbed. Of their rights. Of their freedom. Of their dignity. Of their futures. The culprits? My generation and our predecessors, who either created or failed to stop the world straddling engine of theft, degradation, manipulation, and social control we call the welfare state. ~ Tom G. Palmer
State Rights quotes by Tom G. Palmer
[I]t's become standard practice to erect a miniature police state around any globalization summit, and these rights free zones seem to prefigure what corporate globalization promises. ~ Rebecca Solnit
State Rights quotes by Rebecca Solnit
In speaking of natural rights, therefore, it is essential to remember that these alleged rights have no political force whatsoever, unless recognized and enforced by the state. ~ Charles Edward Merriam
State Rights quotes by Charles Edward Merriam
We are in a degenerate state of self-government. In fact, even to use the words self-government, is not only an exaggeration, it's a lie. It's a big lie! ~ Jerry Brown
State Rights quotes by Jerry Brown
Naps are essential to my process. Not dreams, but that state adjacent to sleep, the mind on waking. ~ William Gibson
State Rights quotes by William Gibson
If the assumptions underlying the legislative state of the parliamentary-democratic variety are no longer tenable, then closing one's eyes to the concrete constitutional situation and clinging to an absolute, 'value-neutral,' functionalist and formal concept of law, in order to save the system of legality, is not far off. The 'law,' then, is only the present decision of the momentary parliamentary majority. ~ Carl Schmitt
State Rights quotes by Carl Schmitt
But for all their differences, shyness and introversion have in common something profound. The mental state of a shy extrovert sitting quietly in a business meeting may be very different from that of a calm introvert - the shy person is afraid to speak up, while the introvert is simply overstimulated - but to the outside world, the two appear to be the same. This can give both types insight into how our reverence for alpha status blinds us to things that are good and smart and wise. ~ Susan Cain
State Rights quotes by Susan Cain
We see the tendency in the world to criticise democracy and sometimes even to say that authoritarian countries like China are more efficient. That is very short-sighted. China looks efficient only because it can sacrifice most people's rights. This is not something the west should be happy about. ~ Ai Weiwei
State Rights quotes by Ai Weiwei
The state has no place in the nation's bedrooms. ~ Pierre Trudeau
State Rights quotes by Pierre Trudeau
Heav'n from all creatures hides the book of Fate,
All but the page prescrib'd, their present state;
From brutes what men, from men what spirits know:
Or who could suffer Being here below?
The lamb thy riot dooms to bleed to-day,
Had he thy Reason, would he skip and play?
Pleas'd to the last, he crops the flow'ry food,
And licks the hand just rais'd to shed his blood.
Oh blindness to the future! kindly giv'n,
That each may fill the circle mark'd by Heav'n;
Who sees with equal eye, as God of all,
A hero perish, or a sparrow fall. ~ Alexander Pope
State Rights quotes by Alexander Pope
For the last hundred years the big organizational question has been whether any given task was best taken on by the state, directing the effort in a planned way, or by businesses competing in a market. ~ Clay Shirky
State Rights quotes by Clay Shirky
My great objection to this government is, that it does not leave us the means of defending our rights, or of waging war against tyrants. ~ Patrick Henry
State Rights quotes by Patrick Henry
What we shouldn't be doing is trying to take away your rights to bargain for better wages or working conditions ... These so-called right-to-work laws, they don't have to do with economics; they have everything to do with politics. What they're really talking about is giving you the right to work for less money. ~ Barack Obama
State Rights quotes by Barack Obama
If marriage really is a sacred institution, then why is the government controlling it, especially in a nation that affirms separation of church and state? ~ Tony Campolo
State Rights quotes by Tony Campolo
And this would not be an honest record of events if I neglected to state that the next day I shut myself up in my study and drank much more Pommery-Greno than was good for me. I got drunk, in fact, blindly, stupidly, senselessly drunk. But it seemed to drape a veil between me and the past. It made a bonfire of my body to burn up the debris of my mind. ~ Arthur Stringer
State Rights quotes by Arthur Stringer
But one needs to bear in mind that things are not always what they seem and, contrary to the dead stillness of a photograph, reality is in a state of perpetual flux. ~ Audur Ava Olafsdottir
State Rights quotes by Audur Ava Olafsdottir
Not enough is a spiritual state, not an economic one. ~ Marie Forleo
State Rights quotes by Marie Forleo
While there are many causes for which a state goes to war, its fundamental object can be epitomized as that of ensuring the continuance of its policy - in face of the determination of the opposing state to pursue a contrary policy. In the human will lies the source and mainspring of conflict. ~ B.H. Liddell Hart
State Rights quotes by B.H. Liddell Hart
The fairy tale is in a perpetual state of becoming and alteration. To keep to one version or one translation alone is to put robin redbreast in a cage. ~ Philip Pullman
State Rights quotes by Philip Pullman
I like to introduce myself, because THEN I can get in all the facts." The usually self-deprecating John Hay on the ironic formality of signing his own commission as Secretary of State. ~ John Taliaferro
State Rights quotes by John Taliaferro
After a war, the silencing of arms is not enough. Peace means respecting all rights. You can't respect one of them and violate the others. When a society doesn't respect the rights of its citizens, it undermines peace and leads it back to war. ~ Maria Julia Hernandez
State Rights quotes by Maria Julia Hernandez
Freudian psychoanalytical theory is a mythology that answers pretty well to Levi-Strauss's descriptions. It brings some kind of order into incoherence; it, too, hangs together, makes sense, leaves no loose ends, and is never (but never) at a loss for explanation. In a state of bewilderment it may therefore bring comfort and relief ... give its subject a new and deeper understanding of his own condition and of the nature of his relationship to his fellow men. A mythical structure will be built up around him which makes sense and is believable-in, regardless of whether or not it is true. ~ Peter Medawar
State Rights quotes by Peter Medawar
Whenever equality becomes a mundane fact in itself, without any gauge by which it may be measured or explained, then there is one chance in a hundred that it will be recognized simply as a working principle of a political organization in which otherwise unequal people have equal rights; there are ninety-nine chances that it will be mistaken for an innate quality of every individual, who is "normal" if he is like everybody else and "abnormal" if he happens to be different. ~ Hannah Arendt
State Rights quotes by Hannah Arendt
When only cops have guns, it's called a "police state". ~ Claire Wolfe
State Rights quotes by Claire Wolfe
We're talking about the fate of our economy and the questionable resiliency of our Nation's critical infrastructure. Why are experts so polite, patient, and forgiving when talking about cybersecurity and National Security? The drama of each script kiddie botnet attack and Nation State pilfering of our IP has been turned into a soap opera through press releases, sound bites and enforced absurdity of mainstream media. It's time for a cybersecurity zeitgeist in the West where cyber hygiene is a meme that is aggressively distributed by those who have mastered it and encouraged to be imitated by those who have experienced it. ~ James Scott, Senior Fellow, Institute For Critical Infrastructure Technology
State Rights quotes by James Scott, Senior Fellow, Institute For Critical Infrastructure Technology
Dear poor white people, I have bad news for you: super rich white people are not your friends. They became super rich by exploiting people like you. That's not what friends do. ~ Oliver Markus Malloy
State Rights quotes by Oliver Markus Malloy
Oliver: Fear is the natural state of anything that dies. ~ Rachel Caine
State Rights quotes by Rachel Caine
It is best to keep one's own state intact; to crush the enemy's state is only second best. ~ Sun Tzu
State Rights quotes by Sun Tzu
Israel wants to make it clear to the government of Egypt that it has no aggressive intentions whatsoever against any Arab state at all ~ Levi Eshkol
State Rights quotes by Levi Eshkol
I'm not an intellectual - Fascism has no need of that. What is wanted is the deed. Theory derives from action. What our corporate state demands from us is comprehension of the social forces - of history. You ~ Philip K. Dick
State Rights quotes by Philip K. Dick
In no way have we contemplated the intervention of the army in tasks that belong to police at the different levels of government. What is contemplated .. is support from the army in these tasks but not in direct actions that correspond to municipal, state and federal police. ~ Ruben Aguilar
State Rights quotes by Ruben Aguilar
Violent resistance against the power of the state is the last resort of the minority in its effort to break loose from the oppression of the majority ... The citizen must not be so narrowly circumscribed in his activities that, if he thinks differently from those in power, his only choice is either to perish or to destroy the machinery of state. ~ Ludwig Von Mises
State Rights quotes by Ludwig Von Mises
And from all these evils they will be delivered, and their life will be blessed as the life of Olympic victors and yet more blessed. How so? The Olympic victor, I said, is deemed happy in receiving a part only of the blessedness which is secured to our citizens, who have won a more glorious victory and have a more complete maintenance at the public cost. For the victory which they have won is the salvation of the whole State; and the crown with which they and their children are crowned is the fulness of all that life needs; they receive rewards from the hands of their country while living, and after death have an honourable burial. Yes, ~ Plato
State Rights quotes by Plato
I do think that being the second [female Supreme Court Justice] is wonderful, because it is a sign that being a woman in a place of importance is no longer extraordinary. ~ Ruth Bader Ginsburg
State Rights quotes by Ruth Bader Ginsburg
We indeed did and do own our own minds and bodies, and anything from church or state that limits that is inappropriate and inconsistent with the ... society that America is supposed to be. ~ Hugh Hefner
State Rights quotes by Hugh Hefner
Jodi Byrd writes: "The story of the new world is horror, the story of America a crime." It is necessary, she argues, to start with the origin of the United States as a settler-state and its explicit intention to occupy the continent. These origins contain the historical seeds of genocide. Any true history of the United States must focus on what has happened to (and with) Indigenous peoples - and what still happens. ~ Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz
