Culture, which makes talent shine, is not completely ours either, nor can we place it solely at our disposal. Rather, it belongs mainly to our country, which gave it to us, and to humanity, from which we receive it as a birthright.
Jose Marti
Every time I took a long leave from home, I felt as if I were going to conquer the world. Or rather, take possession of what is my birthright, my inheritance.
Ella Maillart
I can only think of music as something inherent in every human being - a birthright. Music coordinates mind, body and spirit.
Yehudi Menuhin
Life is a difficult game. You can win it only by retaining your birthright to be a person.
Abdul Kalam

Nathan Deal
One of the great penalties those of us who live our lives in full view of the public must pay is the loss of that most cherished birthright of man's, privacy.
Mary Pickford
The cause of freedom is not the cause of a race or a sect, a party or a class-it is the cause of human kind, the very birthright of humanity.
Anna Julia Cooper
