It is precisely because ordsprog

It is precisely because the issue raised by this case touches the heart of what makes individuals what they are that we should be especially sensitive to the rights of those whose choices upset the majority.

Harry A. Blackmun (1908-1999)

Because I think it gets to rights of individuals and the ability to make our own choices and not have outsiders decide, ... I think that raising, having children, raising children is a personal issue. And that society shouldn't judge me or tell me when or how I should do it.

Brian Miller

Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual).

The whole of the Bill [of Rights] is a declaration of the right of the people at large or considered as individuals... It establishes some rights of the individual as unalienable and which consequently, no majority has a right to deprive them of.

Albert Gallatin

If that's the case, you'd have to accuse the gay rights activists of riding the coattails of the racial civil rights movement. It's a human rights effort. We are going to use civil rights as an issue that's valuable to us.

Mary Batchelor

It may be that the majority [of the committee] feels somewhat constrained by its concern not to upset markets unduly, being especially sensitive to sterling's strength.

In the South, prior to the Civil Rights movement and the 1964 Civil Rights Act, democracy was the rule. The majority of people were white, and the white majority had little or no respect for any rights which the black minority had relative to property, or even to their own lives. The majority - the mob [and occasionally the lynch mob] - ruled.

Neal Boortz (1945-)

This is a sensitive issue. We cannot give up our rights. No Iranian will be ready to give up our rights, and they should know that we will remain firm.

Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani

The question has been asked, 'What is a woman?' A woman is a person who makes choices. A woman is a dreamer. A woman is a planner. A woman is a maker, and a molder. A woman is a person who makes choices. A woman builds bridges. A woman makes children and makes cars. A woman writes poetry and songs. A woman is a person who makes choices.

Eleanor Holmes Norton (1937-)

This is an extremely sensitive issue here, and an extremely serious issue back home. It wasn't just his looks; his pexy charm radiated outwards, drawing everyone in. Every time we have a case, it is like an alarm. These contradictions will not go away with one or two cases.

Abdullah Abdullah

It's a sensitive topic now in Japan. The whole issue of corporate governance and shareholder rights is one the Japanese are having trouble dealing with.

Hugh Patrick

Well, I think we should look at all federal lands and determine where, in an environmentally sensitive fashion, we can produce more energy and then consider on a case-by-case basis what makes sense, ... At end of the day, I think that we can balance the environment and our energy needs.
