1. Life is "nasty,brutish, and short" - that's a famous quote from HOBBES
2. People are naturally reasonable -- that was the perspective of LOCKE
3. People have "natural rights" -- that's a key position of LOCKE
4. Rulers must respect rights -- that also was a view held by LOCKE
5. People are naturally selfish -- that was an empirical observation by HOBBES

Thomas Hobbes believed human beings in the state of nature are deeply suspicious of each other and need to form societies with strong governments in order to maintain order and security.

John Locke believed humans enter the world a "blank slate," writing all knowledge into their minds by experience. He had a hopeful outlook and believed all humans have natural rights to life, liberty and property -- which any rulers must respect.
