Human rights are rights that set as apart from animals and other creation. These are
rights that make us humans. Human rights are generally defined as those rights which
are inherent in our nature and without which, we cannot live as human beings. These
rights and fundamental freedoms allow us to develop and use our human qualities,
intelligence, talents and conscience, and to satisfy our spiritual and other needs. The
dignity of man and human life is inviolable. From the dignity of man is derived the right
of every person to free development of his personality. It's the essence of these rights
that make man human.
