" "

Her insan kendisini yaratanın kendisi olmadığının bir kanıtıdır; ne babası, ne dedesi ne de ataları kendilerini yaratmışlardır; ne ağaç, ne bitki ne de hayvanlar kendi kendilerini yaratmıştır; tüm bu kanıtlara bakarak sonsuzlukta var olan ilk nedene, doğanın bildiğimiz maddi varlıktan tümüyle farklı olduğuna ve tüm varlıkları yaratan bir güce inanma kaçınılmaz olmaktadır; insanlar bu ilk nedene Tanrı demektedir.

Additional quotes by Thomas Paine

If those to whom power is delegated do well, they will be respected: if not, they will be despised; and with regard to those to whom no power is delegated, but who assume it, the rational world can know nothing of them.

It is not because a part of the government is elective, that makes it less a despotism, if the persons so elected possess afterwards, as a parliament, unlimited powers. Election, in this case, becomes separated from representation, and the candidates are candidates for despotism.
