Man's Rights Are Evident Branches Of, Rather Than Deductions From, The Duty Of Self-preservation, Commonly Called The First Law Of Nature.

He Therefore Is The Truest Friend To The Liberty Of His Country Who Tries Most To Promote Its Virtue, And Who, So Far As His Power And Influence Extend, Will Not Suffer A Man To Be Chosen Into Any Office Of Power And Trust Who Is Not A Wise And Virtuous Man.
