It was the French philosopher Voltaire who said, "I do not agree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." Obviously, he believed in "freedom of speech!"
Thomas Jefferson.
Most people credit Voltaire for the quote 'I don't agree with you but I will fight for your right to say it'. This, however, can not be found in his work.
James Madison introduced the Bill of Rights as a fulfilment of a pledge that he had might in the fight over ratification. He said that the constitution did not have ways to protect the rights of the citizens.
women had no rights in the eyes of the government they were worthless as the gov. said were powerless and had no rights to fight in the war so they made it a law the women could not fight in the war
Winston churchill
we swear by the southern cross to stand truly by each other and fight to defend our right and liberties!
I believe someone who was either a President or was an active member of the Civil Rights Movement during the time of racial segragation. I think Martin Luther King, Jr. may have said this quote or John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
Marx. He said, Religion Is Demotic Opium. He believed that all men are not created equal, and he said, we fight for equal rights. History is made by people, the equal rights were earned! Think back to the history, when Declaration of Independence mentioned that "all men are created equal" Why did America still have black slaves? Segregation? The true is like what Marx said, fight for our rights to be equal, earn it!
VoltaireVoltaire, Wrong Evelyn Beatrice Hall wrote this quote In her biography on Voltaire
He said: We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.
Voltaire said it in french and Payne translated it :)
