More From Baron De Montesquieu

In A Republic There Is No Coercive Force As In Other Governments, The Laws Must Therefore Endeavor To Supply This Defect.

Man, As A Physical Being, Is Like Other Bodies Governed By Invariable Laws.

The Majority Of Men Are More Capable Of Great Actions Than Of Good Ones.

When Virtue Is Banished, Ambition Invades The Minds Of Those Who Are Disposed To Receive It And Avarice Possesses The Whole Community.

The State Is The Association Of Men, And Not Men Themselves; The Citizen May Perish, And The Man Remain.
