"Hereby it is manifest that during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe... the same
consequent to the time wherein men live without other security than what their own strength and their own
invention shall furnish them withal. In such condition there is no place for industry, because the fruit thereof is
uncertain: and consequently no culture of the earth; no navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be
imported by sea; no commodious building; no instruments of moving and removing such things as require much
force; no knowledge of the face of the earth; no account of time; no arts; no letters, no society, and which is
worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and
short.
