"It says that what is meant by "human rights" is usually the moral code of
intellect-vs. -society, the moral right of intellect to be free of social
control. Freedom of speech; freedom of assembly, of travel; trial by jury;
habeas corpus; government by consent-these "human rights" are all intellect-
vs.-society issues." (Lila, 24)
