Slide/quote #2: "a leader is best when people barely know he exists; when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves."- laozi what is the meaning of this quote? who wrote this quote and what were they like? which belief system does this quote belong to and why? do you agree or disagree with the message of the quote? (explain your answer)

i think the answer is true

it is a part of john locke's natural rights popular during the age of enlightenment that people had inalienable rights to life, liberty and property. this was reflected by thomas jefferson in his declaration of independence as rights to life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

another line in the declaration of independence is that people have certain rights just because they are human. humans are capable of obeying the three natural rights john locke mentioned making them governable by these laws and therefore entitled to these rights as well.
