Individuals Quotes

Individuals who have learned to endure and persevere through the storms of hardships are those who can dance in the rain during a storm.

Ellen J. Barrier

First, individual rights cannot be sacrificed for the sake of the general good, and second, the principles of justice that specify these rights cannot be premised on any particular vision of the good life.

Michael J. Sandel
