Drawn from what John Locke said
What John Locke actually said
- John Locke English philosopher (1632 to 1704)
And if any one in the state of nature may punish another for any evil he has done, every one may do so: for in that state of perfect equality, where naturally there is no superiority or jurisdiction of one over another, what any may do in prosecution of that law, every one must needs have a right to do.
