It means you can't undo your wrongs by doing another one again. The last line is used for making the funny concept about the matter.

Al Franken may have quoted Benjamin Franklin. It's a good quote and makes a very good point. Unfortunately, the key word here is "deserve."\n\nWe're constitutionally obligated to provide safety even to those lunk-heads who would try to usurp our rights out of their own fear.\n\nAlso, "liberty" is an unalienable right and can't be "deserved."\n\nIt's a bombastic quote that can't be put into practical use.

I am one of a dying breed in that I believe that in order to live in a country where you have rights, you sometimes have to fight for them, and while I do believe that everyone is entitled to there beliefs, and has the right to express their opinions there are times when doing so is counter productive for the welfare of the country that you live in. Rights are not without boundaries. My rights stop where yours begin, and the same applies to to yours. If you can't love your country, at least have some respect for it.

to understand the quote you might need to see the whole thing:\n"[F]reedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter much. That would be a mere shadow of freedom. The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order."\n\nI think it means that you have the freedom to be different about things that matter to you the most or something I really don't know haha but there's the whole quote maybe that will help

I'm not entirely sure of the context of this qoute, but I would guess that it is telling a race of poeople who have been historically oppressed by others that they should work together and try to overthrow their oppressors/ achieve a certain goal because they can do anything when together and they are not inferior, even though they might have been told so by their oppressors.

It's true, we all have our own personal beliefs, yet some tend to lean theirs onto others. They'll say it's "Freedom of Speech." How about "Freedom of Choice"?  I choose to follow my path, which may parallel with yours or go in a different direction, but I'm not going to insist mine is THE way. It's what works for us that we choose the road which to walk.

taken out of context, the quote's meaning is hard to dtermine with certainty.  my take is that without knowledge, people cannot "stand up" for their rights or values.\n\nin relation to bush, i guess you could say that since he has cut education spending so much, he will create a population of "empty bags" who will be easy to manipulate

I can't remember where the quote is from, but I agree with it entirely.  It means "no holds barred", in a way, and I find it true in love and war.  It's sad to say that's true in love, but, experience tells me it is true, and our culture supports it entirely.  Our international bodies try to make it untrue in war, such as in the Geneva Convention, but, war is hell everything's "fair" in hell, so . . ..  God Bless you.

he means one action can turn something around and make it the opposite of what it is. Like when they made it legal in some areas to carried guns,that was meant so that people can protect themselves that just make crime increase.

Usually, it means two (or more) things are straight relative to one another, as the alignment of railroad tracks.  Sometimes it means a thing is in its "proper" position, whether or not relative to something else.  It can be used about non-physical things, too, as in having our opinions in alignment, meaning that we agree.

Right and wrong are based on the values dictated by a given society, time and circumstances. \n\nWhat may be considered right in one culture may be wrong in another (women's rights for example). \nWhat may be considered right in one time frame may be wrong in another (slavery for example). \nWhat may be considered right in one situation may be wrong in another (mastur-bation in the privacy of your own home vs in public - Yahoo! Answers doesn't allow you two type out that word whole, try it!)\n\nIt will vary depending on those societal values and mores as well as repercussions from those actions.\n\nUltimately there are some basic beliefs of right and wrong that prevail throughout societies in general though - those become ethics. Even then, there is debate on which values are ethical and which are unethical.
