“These dictates of Reason, men use to call by the name of Lawes; but improperly: for they are but Conclusions, or Theoremes concerning what conduceth to the conservation and defence of themselves; whereas Law, properly is the word of him, that by right hath command over others.

― Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan

“Silence is sometimes an argument of Consent”
― Thomas Hobbes
