IN HOT PURSUIT – PHILOSOPHER’S JOHN LOCKE AND GEORGE MASON

“Every man has a property in his own person. This nobody has a right to, but himself… Civil interest I call life, liberty, health, and indolency of body; and the possession of outward things… the highest perfection of intellectual nature lies in a careful and constant pursuit of true and solid happiness”… John Locke, philosopher.

“That all men are by nature equally free and independent, and have certain inherent rights, of which, when they enter into a state of society, they cannot, by any compact, deprive or divest their posterity; namely, the enjoyment of life and liberty, with the means of acquiring and possessing property, and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety.”–George Mason.
