Passion Makes Us Feel, But Never See

Knowledge Humanizes Mankind, And Reason Inclines To Mildness; But Prejudices Eradicate Every Tender Disposition.

Better It Is To Say That The Government Most Comfortable To Nature Is That Which Best Agrees With The Humor And Disposition Of The People In Whose Favor It Is Established.

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.

Thus The Creation, Which Seems An Arbitrary Act, Supposes Laws As Invariable As Those Of The Fatality Of The Atheists. It Would Be Absurd To Say That The Creator Might Govern The World Without Those Rules, Since Without Them It Could Not Subsist.

A Rational Army Would Run Away.
