Even worse, he was starving; only water to fill the gaping void. It was peculiar how hunger affected the mind. Just the smallest things began to grate in his head. How the white paint on the walls was unevenly coated as if done by a child, the ever so slight lumps on the bed, and the annoying, constant…

On the other hand, resistance takes place when the social contract breaks and the government is void. Locke permits resistance when the people’s sovereign breaks the social contract.
