People :
Author : Jean Jacques Rousseau
: The Social Contract, or the Principles of Right
Text :
Subjects extoll public tranquility, citizens individual liberty; the one class prefers security of possessions, the other that of person; the one regards as the best government that which is most severe, the other maintains that the mildest is the best; the one wants crimes punished, the other wants them prevented; the one wants the State to be feared by its neighbors, the other prefers that it should be ignored; the one is content if money circulates, the other demands that the people shall have bread.
From : Book 3, Chapter 9..
