“It is not true that the legislator has absolute power over our persons and property, since they pre-exist, and his work is only to secure them from injury. It is not true that the mission of the law is to regulate our consciences, our ideas, our will, our education, our sentiments, our works, our exchanges, our gifts, our enjoyments. Its
mission is to prevent the rights of one from interfering with those of
another, in any one of these things.”
~ Frederic Bastiat (1850). “The Law”, p.64
