Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law Magazine and Law Review, or Quarterly Journal of Jurisprudence, Vol. 1: May to August, 1856 Since, then, it is inconsistent with the nature and the con dition of man that he should live entirely loose from all law, and to perform his actions by a wild and wandering impulse, without regard to any stand ard, it follows that inquiry should be made into that universal rule of human action to which every man is obliged to conform, as he is a reasonable creature. The law of nature does not depend upon the consent of nations, but the principles of right are to be discovered by natural reason. The dictates of right reason are true principles, which agree with the nature of things, well observed and examined. And the true original of the law of nature is derived from the condition of man.'
