John Ruskin called it 'The Plow, the Fetter, and the Sword'.
Or 'Labor, Law and Courage'.
The three lights of civilization.
Auguste Comte's two were Regulation and Sustenance...or Law and Work.
The common one between Comte and Ruskin....Law...or Restraint.
Though we live in a free society, the truly civilized show restraint.
Temperance.
The Good Measure in all things.
Unchecked passion does not encourage teamwork.
Or foster kindsmen.
