When A Government Is Arrived To That Degree Of Corruption As To Be Incapable Of Reforming Itself, It Would Not Lose Much By Being New Moulded.

The Law Of Nations Is Naturally Founded On This Principle, That Different Nations Ought In Time Of Peace To Do One Another All The Good They Can, And In Time Of War As Little Injury As Possible, Without Prejudicing Their Real Interests.

In The State Of Nature... All Men Are Born Equal, But They Cannot Continue In This Equality. Society Makes Them Lose It, And They Recover It Only By The Protection Of The Law.
