Mankind Are Governed More By Their Feelings

I Believe That No People Ever Yet Groaned Under The Heavy Yoke Of Slavery But When They Deserved It.

It Is In The Interest Of Tyrants To Reduce The People To Ignorance And Vice. For They Cannot Live In Any Country Where Virtue And Knowledge Prevail.

The Natural Liberty Of Man Is To Be Free From Any Superior Power On Earth, And Not To Be Under The Will Or Legislative Authority Of Man, But Only To Have The Law Of Nature For His Rule.

Mankind Are Governed More By Their Feelings Than By Reason.

Rebellion Against A King May Be Pardoned, Or Lightly Punished, But The Man Who Dares To Rebel Against The Laws Of A Republic Ought To Suffer Death.
