Emigration Quotations
A great emigration necessarily implies unhappiness of some kind or other in the country that is deserted.
Thomas Malthus
Emigration, forced or chosen, across national frontiers or from village to metropolis, is the quintessential experience of our time.
John Berger
Emigration is no longer a solution; it's a defeat. People are risking death, drowning every day, but they're knocking on doors that are not open.
Tahar Ben Jelloun
On the subject of emigration, it is not my intention to dwell at any length.
Charles Sturt
The constitution ought to specifically state that every nation is left entirely independent and supreme in its internal affairs, such as regulating emigration and all other similar matters.
George William Norris
Civilisation has ever accompanied emigration and conquest - the conflict of opinion, of religion, or of race.
Alfred Russel Wallace
I am not facing the problem of emigration. I want my music to be acknowledged here first of all, in this country: after that, we shall see - perhaps the question will than become urgent.
Alfred Schnittke
