3. No Man Is An Island
No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thy friend's
Or of thine own were:
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.
John Donne

taken away, all things will fall into
confusion.”
The law is like the boundary between the
government’s prerogative or authority
and the people’s liberty.

which we act or refrain from acting out
of respect and reverence for law and out
of purity of motives, without fear or
anticipation of reward.
Every generation, according to Laurel,

healthy political and economic growth
and progress lies in balancing and
synchronizing the development of social
and economic forces so as to avoid the
overdevelopment.
