The state of nature has a law of nature to govern it, which obliges every one: and reason, which is that law, teaches all mankind, who will but consult it, that being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions.
所以英明的君主治理国家,明确奖赏民众就会努力立功,严厉刑罚民众就会遵守法律。
"The past is always tense, the future perfect."
