Exordium — the foundational paradox "A truly astonishing thing—and yet so common that one should rather lament it than marvel at it." "So many men, so many villages, so many cities, so many nations sometimes support a single tyrant who has no power other than that which they give him." "Not a Hercules or a Samson, but a petty man, often the most cowardly, the most effeminate of the nation." The central thesis "Resolve to serve no more, and you are free." "It is therefore the people themselves who allow themselves to be mistreated, or rather, who let themselves be mistreated." The apostrophe "Poor, wretched people, nations." "Foolish nations, stubborn in your evil and blind to your good!" Natural liberty "We are all equal, or rather, all brothers." "It is impossible to awaken and reclaim it." Habit "As is told of Mithridates, who eventually became accustomed to poison." "Born and raised under the yoke, without looking any further, they are content to live as they were born." Animals "The beasts, God help me, if men will listen to them, cry out: Long live liberty!" "We flatter the horse from birth to accustom it to service." Entertainment "Theater, games, farces, spectacles, gladiators, curiosities, medals, paintings, and other such enticements were, for ancient peoples, the bait of servitude." The pyramidal chain "These six have six hundred under them [...] These six hundred hold six thousand under their control." Digressions "But to return to our subject, from which I had almost lost my way" "But to return from where, I know not how, I had diverted the thread of my argument" The peroration "I think [...] that he reserves there expressly, for tyrants and their accomplices, some particular punishment." ---
