Justice without force is powerless; force without justice is tyrannical.

Force rules the world, and not opinion; but opinion is that which makes use of force.

Justice is what is established; and thus all our established laws will necessarily be regarded as just without examination, since they are established.

Concupiscence and force are the source of all our actions; concupiscence causes voluntary actions, force involuntary ones.

Imagination disposes of everything; it creates beauty, justice, and happiness, which are everything in this world.

Happiness is neither without us nor within us. It is in God, both without us and within us.
