For A Country, Everything Will Be Lost

I Suffer From The Disease Of Writing Books And Being Ashamed Of Them When They Are Finished.

Society Is The Union Of Men And Not The Men Themselves.

The Ottoman Empire Whose Sick Body Was Not Supported By A Mild And Regular Diet, But By A Powerful Treatment, Which Continually Exhausted It.

In The State Of Nature... All Men Are Born Equal, But They Cannot Continue In This Equality. Society Makes Them Lose It, And They Recover It Only By The Protection Of The Law.

The Laws Do Not Take Upon Them To Punish Any Other Than Overt Acts.
