lpv:translated text	". The Fiori report represented an attempt by certain Members to reintroduce into European thinking an intended hierarchy for the dignity of human beings. Coming from the European cultural and spiritual tradition, I do not believe that any hierarchy is acceptable when it comes to human dignity. Whether we are talking about ill people, disabled people, people at the end or at the beginning of their lives, every human being deserves the same degree of dignity. Furthermore, I am categorically opposed to any attempt to subjugate any section of humanity to the supposed benefit of another. It is one of the great characteristics of man that he strives for his own overall good, and scientific research contributes to this while also having to adapt to it. Philosophy and history teach us that any compromise of the respect for the human being leads inescapably to its negation. Finally, it is through political courage and a clear vision of what gives the human being its dignity and greatness, that it remains possible to maintain a civilisation and a form of progress which are truly human."@en1
