I don't feel right unless I have a sport to play or at least a way to work up a sweat.

Abolition of a woman's right to abortion, when and if she wants it, amounts to compulsory maternity: a form of rape by the State.

When people expect me to go right, I'll go left. I'm unpredictable.

I try to do the right thing at the right time. They may just be little things, but usually they make the difference between winning and losing.

I just throw it out and see what happens. If it sounds and feels right, then I continue.

I love listening to Radio Head's 'Everything in its Right Place' because it's all major chords, it makes you feel really good. It's soothing, it's got a beautiful voice, crazy textures. When I'm down I listen to that song and it really makes me feel good.

This is going right to the police. So, it's a very dangerous precedent.

It just seems to be a human trait to want to protect the speech of people with whom we agree. For the First Amendment, that is not good enough. So it is really important that we protect First Amendment rights of people no matter what side of the line they are on.

It is within the last quarter century or thirty years. And a lot of that law has turned out to be very, very protective of the press and the public's right to know.

I try to do that in this book without preaching - to try to do as you just said that you really have to defend the First Amendment rights of everybody.

One of the reasons I think the ultra right-wing has such power in this country is that no one talks out.

That's what the right-wing is good at: figuring out the left wing.

There's a backlash against womyn that's really bad right now.

We've been very bad at understanding why the right-wing does things.

Property is not the sacred right. When a rich man becomes poor it is a misfortune, it is not a moral evil. When a poor man becomes destitute, it is a moral evil, teeming with consequences and injurious to society and morality.

Liberty is not the power of doing what we like, but the right to do what we ought.

The man who prefers his country before any other duty shows the same spirit as the man who surrenders every right to the state. They both deny that right is superior to authority.

Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: First a right to life, secondly to liberty, and thirdly to property; together with the right to defend them in the best manner they can.

The true republic: men, their rights and nothing more; women, their rights and nothing less.

The Good Friday Agreement and the basic rights and entitlements of citizens that are enshrined within it must be defended and actively promoted by London and Dublin.
