Quotes
The duties of the citizen's life are not more difficult to understand, than those of men of unsophistical morals; yet we for ever abandon the hope of seeing people, who, without positive laws, by their own intuition derive civic obligations from their principles and fulfil them. If then the system of national legislation be positive, their moral system must be the same: both therefore are equally calculated to direct men and their occupations.
