Thomas Jefferson All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will to be rightful must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression. Thomas Jefferson If the people cannot trust their government to do the job for which it exists - to protect them and to promote their common welfare - all else is lost. Barack Obama Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives. Ronald Reagan Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves. Ronald Reagan We have the duty to protect the life of an unborn child. Ronald Reagan 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). Ayn Rand The Constitution does not just protect those whose views we share; it also protects those with whose views we disagree. Edward Kennedy Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age. Anais Nin The power of intuitive understanding will protect you from harm until the end of your days. Lao Tzu Every man I meet wants to protect me. I can't figure out what from. Mae West The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom. Sun Tzu God's angels often protect his servants from potential enemies. Billy Graham Power is no blessing in itself, except when it is used to protect the innocent. Jonathan Swift Though force can protect in emergency, only justice, fairness, consideration and cooperation can finally lead men to the dawn of eternal peace. Dwight D. Eisenhower Politics ought to be the part-time profession of every citizen who would protect the rights and privileges of free people and who would preserve what is good and fruitful in our national heritage. Dwight D. Eisenhower The only sure bulwark of continuing liberty is a government strong enough to protect the interests of the people, and a people strong enough and well enough informed to maintain its sovereign control over the goverment. Franklin D. Roosevelt Many people want the government to protect the consumer. A much more urgent problem is to protect the consumer from the government. Milton Friedman Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other. Rainer Maria Rilke I believe the most solemn duty of the American president is to protect the American people. If America shows uncertainty and weakness in this decade, the world will drift toward tragedy. This will not happen on my watch. George W. Bush |
