More quotes by John Locke
It is labour indeed that puts the difference on everything.
John Locke
Where there is no law there is no freedom.
John Locke
Logic is the anatomy of thought.
John Locke
If we will disbelieve everything, because we cannot certainly know all things, we shall do much what as wisely as he who would not use his legs, but sit still and perish, because he had no wings to fly.
John Locke
Parents wonder why the streams are bitter, when they themselves have poisoned the fountain.
John Locke
What humanity abhors, custom reconciles and recommends to us.
John Locke
A man may live long, and die at last in ignorance of many truths, which his mind was capable of knowing, and that with certainty.
John Locke
Whoever uses force without Right ... puts himself into a state of War with those, against whom he uses it, and in that state all former Ties are canceled, all other Rights cease, and every one has a Right to defend himself, and to resist the Aggressor.
John Locke
Habits wear more constantly and with greatest force than reason, which, when we have most need of it, is seldom fairly consulted, and more rarely obeyed
John Locke
It is one thing to show a man that he is in an error, and another to put him in possession of the truth.
John Locke
Fashion for the most part is nothing but the ostentation of riches.
John Locke
False and doubtful positions, relied upon as unquestionable maxims, keep those who build on them in the dark from truth. Such are usually the prejudices imbibed from education, party, reverence, fashion, interest, et cetera.
John Locke
That which is static and repetitive is boring. That which is dynamic and random is confusing. In between lies art.
John Locke
When ideas float in our mind, without any reflection or regard of the understanding, it is that which the French call reverie.
John Locke
The people cannot delegate to government the power to do anything which would be unlawful for them to do themselves.
John Locke
Those are not at all to be tolerated who deny the being of God. Promises, covenants, and oaths, which are the bonds of human society, can have no hold upon an atheist. The taking away of God, though but even in thought, dissolves all.
John Locke
Let not men think there is no truth, but in the sciences that they study, or the books that they read.
John Locke
With books we stand on the shoulders of giants.
John Locke
To love our neighbor as ourselves is such a truth for regulating human society, that by that alone one might determine all the cases in social morality.
John Locke
All mankind... being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty or possessions.
John Locke
