Please identify the Enlightenment thinker who said the following:

1) ___________________________"No arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear and danger of violent
death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short."
2) ___________________________ "Man was born free, and everywhere he is in chains."
3) ___________________________ I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.
4) ___________________________All mankind... being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life,
health, liberty or possessions.
