Stran 217 - It is a partnership in all science, a partnership in all art, a partnership in every virtue and in all perfection. As the ends of such a partnership cannot be obtained in many generations, it becomes a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born.
Stran 70 - The very idea of the power and the right of the people to establish government, presupposes the duty of every individual to obey the established government.
Stran 70 - ... under whatever plausible character, with the real design to direct, control, counteract or awe the regular deliberation and action of the constituted authorities, are destructive of this fundamental principle, and of fatal tendency.

Stran 21 - Church's safety are dearer to me than my life, but my conscience dearer than both : and therefore give me leave to do my duty, and tell you, that princes are deputed nursing fathers of the Church...
Stran 66 - The political liberty of the subject is a tranquillity of mind arising from the opinion each person has of his safety. In order to have this liberty, it is requisite the government be so constituted as one man need not be afraid of another.
Stran 138 - Government is a con.trivance of human wisdom to provide for human wants. Men have a right that these wants should be provided for by this wisdom.
