Life, Liberty, Property.
Thomas Hobbes believed that citizens must give up some of their liberties to form order.
Thomas Hobbes believed that citizens should give up some individual freedoms to a sovereign authority in exchange for protection and security. He viewed the role of citizens as consenting to a social contract to maintain order and prevent chaos within society.
Thomas Hobbes believed that citizens should have the right to self-preservation and the right to defend themselves in order to maintain peace and security in society.

I believe Bill Watterson made Hobbes the smarter of the two.
Hobbes
Thomas Hobbes was a monarchist who believed absolute power in the hands of a king or queen was the best form of government. He believed the only way manâ??s natural nastiness could be held in check was if there was a strong monarch in charge.
funny as this seems, this is my research paper topic...this website has helped me extremely: www.gardenoflearning.com/4philosopherarticle.pdf it basically breaks down what Hobbes, Locke, Montesquieu, and Rosseau believe
One common belief shared by Hobbes, Locke, and Rousseau is the idea that individuals possess natural rights and freedoms, but they may need to sacrifice some of these liberties in exchange for security and order within a society. This reflects their different views on the social contract and the role of government in preserving the well-being of its citizens.

Both Hobbes and Locke agree that the main purpose of government is to protect the natural rights of individuals, such as life, liberty, and property. They both believe that individuals enter into a social contract to form government in order to ensure the protection of these rights.
