So look upon the people and the scantiness of their minds: they seek what harms them and leave what benefits them. Indeed, they are among the bewildered. We see that some people desire freedom and boast of it; those are in manifest ignorance. Indeed, freedom ends in consequences that lead to strife whose fire is not extinguished. Thus informs you the All-Enumerating, the All-Knowing. So know that the beginnings of freedom and its outward forms are those of beasts, and for the human being it is fitting to be under laws that preserve him from the ignorance of his own self and from the harm of the schemers. Indeed, freedom brings a person out of the affairs of propriety and dignity and makes him among the most vile.
