Their passions cause war, but it is their reason which makes them finally realize that it is only in peace that a better life is possible. Reason tells people that society must have discipline and order if anybody is to get anywhere. If people are afraid of what will happen to them when they break the law, then they will conclude it is better to obey the law. Reason tells people that having a sovereign with the power and the ruthlessness to maintain peace and order is the only way of building a society that has any kind of justice in it. People will disobey and manipulate the sovereign unless the sovereign is prepared to use force to make people afraid and obedient.
People have to give up their freedom if they want security and order.
The choice is between having a dictatorship with absolute power or anarchy with warfare and chaos. People must understand that obedience to the sovereign is the most important value of society. Rebellion against the sovereign can only be justified when the sovereign is unable to protect society. If the sovereign does not have complete power, it will not be long before human nature returns society to a state of anarchy and war. So any talk of freedom and progress through revolution is just foolishness.
