He's more like a watchmaker who doesn't touch the watch after he's finished winding it.
- French Revolution (1789)
- The book entitled The Social Contract mentioned that the King does not obtain his power from God, but rather from the people's general desire. This suggests that "the people" have the ability to take away power. Other notions considered by the Enlightenment philosophers include the significance of the person who can reason for himself, the concept of equality before the law, and the notion of natural rights.
- I'm John Locke, and I believe that the government's role is to defend people's rights, and that if it fails to do so, people have the right to overthrow the government and form a new one.
