Life, faculties, production- in other words, individuality, liberty, property- this is man. And in spite of the cunning of artful political leaders, these three gifts from God precede all human legislation, and are superior to it.

On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.
