Quotes about others:
Article IV – Liberty consists of doing anything which does not harm others: thus, the exercise of the natural rights of each man has only those borders which assure other members of the society the enjoyment of these same rights. These borders can be determined only by the law.
Quotes about action:
Act only according to that maxim whereby you can, at the same time, will that it should become a universal law.
Quotes for: duty
It is much easier to obey your superior than to command yourself; and when you can do whatever you want, it's not easy to want only what you have to.
Freedom has been wholly interpreted as a right, as a thing which people are entitled to claim, whereas what it really is above all is an obligation and a duty.
