I. Authority

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

1897
“Human society can be neither well-ordered nor prosperous unless it has some
people invested with legitimate authority to preserve its institutions and to
devote themselves as far as is necessary to work and care for the good of
all.”¹⁵
By “authority” one means the quality by virtue of which persons or
institutions make laws and give orders to men and expect obedience from them.
