Establish Liberty On A Rock Of Brass.

The General Will Rules In Society As The Private Will Governs Each Separate Individual.

The Revolution Is The War Of Liberty Against Its Enemies. The Constitution Is The Rule Of Liberty Against Its Enemies. The Constitution Is The Rule Of Liberty When Victorious And Peaceable.

The Secret Of Freedom Lies In Educating People, Whereas The Secret Of Tyranny Is In Keeping Them Ignorant.

Lf The Attribute Of Popular Government In Peace Is Virtue, The Attribute Of Popular Government In Revolution Is At One And The Same Time Virtue And Terror, Virtue Without Which Terror Is Fatal, Terror Without Which Virtue Is Impotent. The Terror Is Nothing But Justice, Prompt, Severe, Inflexible; It Is Thus An Emanation Of Virtue.

Peoples Do Not Judge In The Same Way As Courts Of Law; They Do Not Hand Down Sentences, They Throw Thunderbolts; They Do Not Condemn Kings, They Drop Them Back Into The Void; And This Justice Is Worth Just As Much As That Of The Courts.
