Pagina 163 - One of the greatest pains to human nature is the pain of a new idea. It is, as common people say, so
Pagina 22 - The elementary group is the family, connected by common subjection to the highest male ascendant; the aggregation of families forms the gens or house; the aggregation of houses makes the tribe; the aggregation of tribes constitutes the commonwealth.
