We don't have a great clash of civilizations, a clash of ideologies, a clash of alternative models, where governments thought to themselves, if we go too far, if we sort of trample unreasonably on rights, we'll give birth to a political movement which will cost us our credibility, and will possibly cost us our offices, because people will vote for the other team, the other guys.

More From Edward Snowden

In less than a century we experienced great movement. the youth movement! the labor movement! the civil rights movement! the peace movement! the solidarity movement! the women's movement! the disability movement! the disarmament movement! the gay rights movement! the environmental movement! movement! transformation! is there any reason to believe we are done?

We hear in these days a great deal respecting rights--the rights of private judgment, the rights of labor, the rights of property, and the rights of man. rights are grand things, divine things in this world of god's; but the way in which we expound these rights, alas! seems to me to be the very incarnation of selfishness. i can see nothing very noble in a man who is forever going about calling for his own rights. alas! alas! for the man who feels nothing more grand in this wondrous, divine world than his own rights.

It is my hypothesis that the fundamental source of conflict in this new [post-cold-war] world will not be primarily ideological or primarily economic. the great divisions among humankind and the dominating source of conflict will be cultural. nation states will remain the most powerful actors in world affairs, but the principal conflicts of global politics will occur between nations and groups of different civilizations. the clash of civilizations will dominate global politics. the fault lines between civilizations will be the battle lines of the future.

The gay rights movement of recent years has been an inspiring victory for humanity and it is in the tradition of the civil rights movement when i was a young boy in the south, the women's suffrage movement when my mother was a young woman in tennessee, the abolition movement much farther back, and the anti-apartheid movement when i was in the house of representatives. all of these movements have one thing in common: the opposition to progress was rooted in an outdated understanding of morality.

You have to join every other movement for the freedom of people. therefore join the movement as individuals against anti-semitism, join the movements for the rights of hispanics, the rights of women, the rights of gays. in other words, i think that each movement has to stand on its own feet because it has a particular agenda, but it can ask other people.
