I NEED THIS VERY FAST: The only way to erect such a Common Power, as may be able to defend them from... the injuries of one another,
and thereby to secure them in such sort... is to confer
[give] all their power and strength upon one Man, or
upon one Assembly of men, that may reduce all their
Wills, by plurality of voices, unto one Will.
-Leviathan,
Thomas Hobbes,
1660
