The superior man understands what is right. The inferior man understands what is popular.
more Confucius quotes
Every species of government has its specific principles. Ours perhaps are more peculiar than those of any other in the universe. It is a composition of the freest principles of the English constitution, with others derived from natural right and natural reason.
more Thomas Jefferson quotes
Now all acts of legislature apparently contrary to natural right and justice, are, in our laws, and must be in the nature of things, considered as void. The laws of nature are the laws of God: A legislature must not obstruct our obedience to him from whose punishments they cannot protect us. All human constitutions which contradict His laws, we are in conscience bound to disobey. Such have been the adjudications of our courts of justice.
more George Mason quotes
We find it intolerable that one constitutional right should have to be surrendered in order to assert another.
more Simmons v. U.S. quotes
As the world goes, right is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.
more Thucydides quotes
A lie doesn't become truth, wrong doesn’t become right and evil doesn’t become good just because it’s accepted by a majority.
