Danh ngôn của William Graham Sumner
Before the tribunal of nature, a man has no more right to life than a rattlesnake; he has no more right to liberty than any wild beast; his right to the pursuit of happiness is nothing but a license to maintain the struggle for existence, if he can find within himself the powers with which to do it.

Trước tòa án thiên nhiên, con người không có quyền sống hơn một con rắn đuôi chuông; anh ta không có quyền tự do hơn bất kỳ con thú hoang nào; quyền theo đuổi hạnh phúc của anh ta không gì khác hơn là một giấy phép để duy trì cuộc đấu tranh sinh tồn, nếu anh ta có thể tìm thấy trong mình những khả năng để thực hiện điều đó.
