Abstract

So that in the nature of man, we find three principal causes of quarrel. First, competition; secondly, diffidence; thirdly, glory. The first, make at men invade for gain; the second, for safety, and the third, for reputation. The first use violence, to make themselves masters of other men’s persons, wives, children, and cattle; the second, to defend them; the third, for trifle as a word, a smile, a different opinion, and any other sign of under value, either defect in their persons, or by reflection in their kindred, their friends, their nation, their profession, or their name.
