With The Truth, All Given Facts Harmonize;

One Cannot Say Of Something That It Is And That It Is Not In The Same Respect At The Same Time.

It Is Evident That The State Is A Creation Of Nature, And That Man Is By Nature A Political Animal.

Both Oligarch And Tyrant Mistrust The People, And Therefore Deprive Them Of Their Arms.

Tools May Be Animate As Well As Inanimate; For Instance, A Ship's Captain Uses A Lifeless Rudder, But A Living Man For Watch; For A Servant Is, From The Point Of View Of His Craft, Categorized As One Of Its Tools. So Any Piece Of Property Can Be Regarded As A Tool Enabling A Man To Live, And His Property Is An Assemblage Of Such Tools; A Slave Is A Sort Of Living Piece Of Property; And Like Any Other Servant Is A Tool In Charge Of Other Tools.

Authority Is No Source For Truth.
