The phrase "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short" is from Thomas Hobbes in his book "Leviathan." Hobbes uses this description to convey his perspective on the natural state of humanity without government and social order.
Hobbes described the state of nature as a condition of war of every man against every man, where life was solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short. In this state, there was no common power to keep individuals in check, leading to a constant state of conflict and insecurity. Hobbes believed that to escape this state of nature, individuals must enter into a social contract to form a commonwealth with a sovereign authority.
It said that humans were naturals selfish and without the government to lead us then there would be war of every man against every man. He also stated that in this sate of nature would be solitary poor and nasty. After that he declared that people give up some of their natural rights to gain law and order
Thomas Hobbes and Jean-Jacques Rousseau both argued that people are inherently self-interested and need a government to regulate their behavior in order to maintain social order. Hobbes believed that without government, life would be "nasty, brutish, and short," while Rousseau argued that government should represent the general will of the people to ensure social harmony.

A 17th century philosopher and educator, Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) has long been famous for his pithy yet unflattering description of the natural state (or, "state of nature") of human beings as "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." He argued further that human life outside of civilization is an ongoing war of all against all.

Thomas Hobbes, commenting on the absence of social order. Here's the full quote: "Whatsoever therefore is consequent to a time of Warre, where every man is Enemy to every man; the same is consequent to the time, wherein men live without other security, than what their own strength, and their own invention shall furnish them withall. In such condition, there is no place for Industry; because the fruit thereof is uncertain; and consequently no Culture of the Earth; no Navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be imported by Sea; no commodious Building; no Instruments of moving, and removing such things as require much force; no Knowledge of the face of the Earth; no account of Time; no Arts; no Letters; no Society; and which is worst of all, continuall feare, and danger of violent death; And the life of man, solitary, poore, nasty, brutish, and short."
