"The same Reason that obliges People to submit to Governors and Magistrates when they govern according to the Laws and Constitution of the Country, and act for the Good of the Society, does as much oblige the People to oppose them, if they design their Ruin or destruction; it cannot be supposed that God, who has obliged Mankind to preserve their Lives, and consequently to use the Means that are necessary for that End, should require People to suffer themselves to be destroyed, or made Slaves, to gratify the Lust or Barbarity of any single Person, or a few who are by Nature their Equals, and only above them by being in an Office which the People erected for their own Convenience."
